The foodborne pathogen Salmonella poses a significant threat to human health worldwide. This is further complicated by the emergent spread of antibiotic resistant strains. Salmonella serotypes and subtypes can have different niches, from a broad range to a very specific niche, e.g. humans. Such bacteria can become very efficient in infecting humans and will contribute even more to the spread of antibiotic resistance. To combat the emergent ...
