Exposure to short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) is one of the stress conditions Salmonella typhimurium encounters during its life cycle, because SCFA have been widely used as food preservatives and SCFA are also present at high concentrations in the gastrointestinal tracts of host animals. The effects...
