Abstract excerpt
Salmonella serotyping is shifting from slide agglutination toward whole-genome sequencing (WGS). While WGS allows for comprehensive analyses, phenotypic information about lipopolysaccharide-deficient ("LPS-rough") isolates obtained from slide agglutination is lost. This discrepancy represents a challenge for Salmonella control in livestock because in the European Union, LPS-rough Salmonella isolated from...
