Among S. typhimurium and S. agona strains isolated during the period from 1971 to 1987, the biotypes, colicine types and resistance patterns were determined for 734 S. typhimurium and 631 S. agona strains. Among 734 S. typhimurium strains 65 biotypes were disclosed with prevalence of biotypes 1a (28.34%), 1b (29.84%) and 9 bi (18.28). Concerning S. agona, the biotype 1a represented by 87.16%, was the commonest clone among our strains. Although colicine typing added little information to characterize these serotypes, it should be usefull when applied in epidemiological study of outbreaks. It was observed multiply antimicrobial resistance mainly among human strains, particularly from nosocomial origins.

From October 2020 to February 2021, a total of 95 retail chicken meat products from 39 retail meat shops in Tokyo Metropolis and Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, were collected and examined for the prevalence of Salmonella to assess public health implications. If a sample tested positive for Salmonella, a quantitative analysis was performed using the three-tube most probable number (MPN) method. Of 95 retail chicken meat products, Salmonella was isolated from 30 samples (31.

Drying is one of the most effective preservation methods for extending the shelf-life of perishable foods. The microbial safety of low-moisture food products had not been recognized as a concern until outbreaks reported over the past decade in products contaminated with bacterial pathogens, in particular . There is now an urgent need to understand the influence of process conditions on the thermal inactivation of pathogens in various drying operations.

Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed 53 multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains from 1232 poultry meat samples in South Korea using whole-genome sequencing due to a lack of genetic data in this area.
- Five serotypes were identified, with Infantis being the most common, and various sequence types (STs) and core genome sequence types (cgSTs) also distinguished, indicating genetic diversity among the strains.
- The analysis revealed 28 antimicrobial resistance genes, 10 plasmid replicons, and numerous virulence genes, highlighting distinct genetic profiles among the major MDR serotypes—Infantis, Enteritidis, and Virchow—for improved epidemiological surveillance.

Article Synopsis
- Salmonella is a foodborne pathogen primarily linked to chicken meat, and this study investigates its prevalence and characteristics in different retail chicken supply modes: live, frozen, and chilled.
- A total of 480 chicken samples revealed a higher prevalence of Salmonella in live poultry (67.5%) compared to frozen (50.0%) and chilled (43.3%) modes.
- The study found significant differences in serotype distribution and antibiotic resistance, with frozen chicken exhibiting the highest multidrug resistance rates (91.8%) and greater diversity of antibiotic resistance genes.
