tissue changes induced by enterotoxic preparations of salmonella weltevreden in ligated rabbit gut segments.culture filtrates and cell lysates of two strains of s. weltevreden which caused dilation of ligated rabbit gut segments (characteristic associated with the enterotoxic activity) induced mild to severe architectural changes in the test segments of intestine. the dilated segments contained thick, bloody and mucoid exudates. the results suggested that besides invasiveness and enterotoxigenicity, s. weltevreden possibly possessed factor (s) that damaged intestinal tissue and played part in the path ...19921459642
a delayed permeability factor in the culture filtrates and cell lysates of salmonella weltevreden.salmonella weltevreden strains produced a delayed permeability factor (pf) when tested on depilated rabbit skin. the pf activity could be demonstrated in freshly concentrated culture filtrates as well as in the cell lysates. the activity varied with strain and preparation. the induration and blueing reactions were associated with well marked balancing zones.19921483713
outbreak of keratoconjunctivitis due to salmonella weltevreden in a guinea pig colony.the purpose of this report is to demonstrate that the ability to produce keratoconjunctivitis (kc) is a property found in salmonella weltevreden. this observation is contrary to previous reports that salmonella spp. do not produce kc. an outbreak of kc due to s. weltevreden occurred in a guinea pig colony, and the animals carried the organism in the intestinal tract. the same salmonella serotype that caused an epidemic of diarrhea in humans and a routine laboratory isolate also possessed the abi ...19911774327
nontyphoidal salmonella enteric infections and bacteremia.antimicrobial treatment of nontyphoidal salmonella gastroenteritis is usually advocated for infants younger than 3 months of age based on published data showing that infants in this age group are more prone to have bacteremia and develop extraintestinal focal infections. a review of nontyphoidal salmonella isolates from our institution from january, 1981, through march, 1988, was undertaken to assess the role of age and specific serovar on the incidence of bacteremia. two hundred twenty isolates ...19892664692

comparative genomic analysis of salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar weltevreden foodborne strains with other serovars.salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar weltevreden is a dominant serovar associated with foodborne gastroenteritis in south-east asia and emerging in europe associated with fresh vegetables. here we compared the genome of strain 2007-60-3289-1 linked to an alfalfa sprout outbreak in scandinavia with a s. weltevreden strain isolated from scallops in the usa and with other s. enterica serovars. a unique plasmid psw82 was identified for s. weltevreden carrying a two-component type ii non-ribos ...201222341936
irrigation water quality and the benefits of implementing good agricultural practices during tomato (lycopersicum esculentum) production.the implementation of good agricultural practices (gap) from irrigation water to the tomato packaging process enhances the safety of fresh produce and its value throughout the food chain. the aim of the present study was to show that fresh produce farms that apply and enforce gap could reduce the presence of salmonella in finished produce. samples were collected biweekly from six packing houses from the central region of sinaloa, méxico, for the isolation of salmonella spp by the iso 6579:2002 m ...201424682661
differential expression of virulence genes and role of gyra mutations in quinolone resistant and susceptible strains of salmonella weltevreden and newport isolated from seafood.to investigate the differential expression of virulence genes and role of gyra mutations in quinolone resistant and susceptible strains of salmonella isolated from seafood.201526249136
detection of class 1 integrons in salmonella weltevreden and silent antibiotic resistance genes in some seafood-associated nontyphoidal isolates of salmonella in south-west coast of india.to study the antibiogram of 40 seafood isolates of salmonella and use of pcr to detect the presence of integrons and genes coding for antibiotic resistance.201222443444
distribution of salmonella serovars and antimicrobial susceptibility from poultry and swine farms in central vietnam.this study was conducted to estimate the prevalence of salmonella spp. and their antimicrobial susceptibilities on poultry and swine farms, sampled in 2 regions in central vietnam. a total of 67 poultry farms and 46 swine farms were sampled in a period of 5 months (from september 2012 to january 2013). salmonella spp. was prevalent in 46.3% and 71.7% of poultry and swine farms, respectively. altogether, 99 non-typhoidal salmonella were isolated and the most common serovars were salmonella weltev ...201626952244
salmonella weltevreden in integrated and non-integrated tilapia aquaculture systems in guangdong, china.integrated tilapia-pig farming, which uses manure from pigs as fertilizers in fish pond, is a traditional and common production system practised by small-scale farmers in south-east asia. although such systems may be environmentally sustainable, they also pose potential food safety hazards including transmission of faecal zoonotic pathogens and accumulation of antimicrobial and other chemical residues. this study aimed to determine differences in occurrence and characteristics of salmonella spp. ...201728400002
clonal occurrence of salmonella weltevreden in cultured shrimp in the mekong delta, vietnam.this study investigated the occurrence, serovar and antimicrobial resistance of salmonella spp. in shrimp samples from intensive and extensive farms located in three different provinces in the mekong delta, vietnam. shrimp from 11 of the 48 farms all contained s. weltevreden, except for one farm yielding s. agona, with no difference in salmonella occurrence between the two production systems. pulsed field gel electrophoresis (pfge) of s. weltevreden showed closely related xbai pulse types, sugge ...201526222547
