The genetic signatures of <i>Salmonella</i> Typhi carriage in the human gallbladder

2020-06-09

Abstract excerpt

Despite recent gains in typhoid fever control, asymptomatic carriage of Salmonella Typhi in the gallbladder remains an enigma. Aiming to understand if S. Typhi in the gallbladder are vital for transmission and/or adapted for long-term colonisation we performed whole genome sequencing on a collection of S . Typhi isolated from the gallbladders of typhoid carriers. These sequences were compared to contemporaneous...
