Virulence determinants of Salmonella typhimurium from animal sources
1989
McDonough, P.L. | Jacobson, R.H. | Timoney, J.F.
Two hundred seventy-eight strains of Salmonella typhimurium isolated from 1973 to 1981 from animal sources in New York State were studied for possible virulence determinants and for a serotype-specific plasmid possibly linked with virulence. Of the strains, 98% possessed type-1 fimbriae. All strains possessed flagella and were motile. One hundred twenty-three strains (44%) treated with mitomycin C tested positive for the cholera-Escherichia coli heat labile family of toxins by a kinetics-based ELISA; when treated with mitomycin C and extracted with polymyxin B, 249 (90%) were positive in the kinetics-based ELISA. All strains were negative in the Biken Test. A smooth cell wall was found in 99% of the strains. Sixty-one percent (169) of the strains had a 62-Md plasmid. Seventy-six (27$%) of the strains had detectable plasmids ranging in size from 1 to 124 Md.
