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 .

serovar Typhi primarily persists in chronic carriers by forming biofilms on gallstones in the gallbladder. We have developed a gallstone mouse model to study chronic carriage. To better understand the infection timeline and differentiate between mice that have maintained long-term gallbladder carriage from those that have cleared infection, we utilized bioluminescent .
