Salmonella gastroenteritis and septicemia were diagnosed in two cats presented for necropsy. Both cats resided in the same household and were fed a home-prepared, raw meat-based diet. Salmonella was isolated from multiple organs in both cats and from samples of raw beef incorporated into the diet fed to one of the cats. Subtyping of the bacterial isolates yielded Salmonella newport from one cat and from the diet it had been fed. This report provides evidence that the practice of feeding raw meat-based diets to domestic cats may result in clinical salmonellosis.

Article Synopsis
- The study explored the effects of berberine (BBR) on enteritis in broiler chickens by examining immune responses and organ health in 21- to 35-day-old chicks.
- Results showed that BBR treatment increased serum immunoglobulin levels, antioxidant capacity, and improved gut microbiota by promoting beneficial bacteria while reducing harmful ones.
- Transcriptome analysis indicated that BBR influences immune-related gene expression, particularly affecting pathways linked to T and B cell signaling, demonstrating its potential as a therapeutic agent against intestinal inflammation.

Article Synopsis
- Diet plays a crucial role in cancer development, with certain cooking methods like grilling contributing to mutagenic substances in food.
- Researchers discovered two new harmful compounds, Trp-P-1 and Trp-P-2, that are produced when tryptophan is charred during cooking.
- These compounds, along with over 10 other identified heterocyclic amines (HCAs), have been linked to cancer in various organs in animal studies and may also have implications for human cancer risk.

Asymptomatic chronic carriers occur in approximately 5% of humans infected with serovar Typhi (. Typhi) and represent a critical reservoir for bacterial dissemination. While chronic carriage primarily occurs in the gallbladder (GB) through biofilms on gallstones, additional anatomic sites have been suggested that could also harbor .
