[edit] Surface Characteristics
Surface LPS of Salmonella choleraesuis SN57 [Ra] is a complex macromolecule composed of the biologically active lipid A moiety, covalently attached core oligosaccharide, and distally linked polysaccharide O-side chain.
[edit] Transmission
By ingestion of food contaminated directly from infected animals or indirectly by infected animal or person; from animal feeds and fertilizers prepared from contaminated meat scraps; fecal-oral transmission from person to person
[edit] Pathogenic Activity
Salmonellosis, an acute gastroenteritis with sudden onset of headache, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea and sometimes vomiting; may develop septicemia commonly with metastatic focal infections in any tissue of body, intravascular lesions, osteomyelitis, and meningitis; Fatality rate 2-3 times that of typhoid; food borne disease; few cases clinically recognized and reported; uncommon in humans, but important pathogen of swine; may cause typhoid like enteric fever
