Abstract excerpt
Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis that grows to a higher cell density (SE-HCD) than wild type while retaining O-chain lipopolysaccharide was isolated by transforming wild type serovar Enteritidis with the cell density sensor plasmid pSB402 and selecting for bioluminescence. A luminescent st...
