Article Synopsis
- - The study analyzed Salmonella enterica in mango, tomato, and raw chicken samples from three central Mexican states, finding a higher prevalence and concentration in chicken (24.9%) compared to mango (1.3%) and tomato (1.1%).
- - Researchers identified 284 S. enterica isolates, with 7 virulotypes and a majority (68.7%) belonging to one type (V2); most isolates had significant variability in mobile genetic elements and 91.5% showed antibiotic resistance.
- - The findings can inform risk assessments for consuming these foods and help select strains for further research on the variability of the pathogen.
