Salmonella Classification, Genetics and Disease Outbreaks

Salmonella are ubiquitous enteric bacteria, responsible for thousands of deaths world-wide. In this book, the authors present current research in the study of the classification, genetics and disease outbreak cases relating to salmonella. Topics include the pre- and post-harvest intervention strategies for controlling salmonella contamination in broiler production; salmonella enterica survival to biocides and antibiotics; salmonella new-port contamination in produce; genome comparisons of salmonella; salmonella in sub-Antarctica and Antarctica; and hazard of salmonella in the intact shell egg.
