This study investigated antimicrobial resistance in Salmonella enterica serovar Choleraesuis (S. Choleraesuis) isolates from diseased pigs in Taiwan (2015-2020). Among 272 isolates, florfenicol (96.7%), enrofloxacin (96.3%), doxycycline (91.2%), gentamicin (84.6%), and tiamulin (80.5%) exhibited high resistance. 99.3% of the isolates were resistant to at least one antibiotic, and 97.8% of the isolates were multidrug resistant. This study illustrated that S. Choleraesuis isolates exhibited high resistance to antimicrobials currently used in the Taiwanese swine industry.

Non-typhoidal (NTS) is a major global foodborne pathogen that poses a major public health concern worldwide, and no vaccines are available for protecting against infection of multiple serotypes, therefore, the development of vaccines to provide broad protection is valuable. In this work, we aimed to regulate lipopolysaccharide (LPS) synthesis of live for exposing conserved protein antigens on the outer membrane while maintaining smooth LPS patterns to keep their original ability to invade host cells for inducing cross-protection against infection of multiple serotypes. We generated a series of mutants defective in genes to affect the length of LPS.

Article Synopsis
  • Salmonella enterica is a major cause of food-borne illnesses, linked to the contamination of the food supply, particularly through the pig industry.
  • The evolution of this pathogen is greatly influenced by modern farming practices and global trade, with significant changes observed in its population dynamics and antibiotic resistance.
  • Research findings indicate that pigs and pork have become primary sources for transmitting S. enterica to other hosts, highlighting a strong connection between salmonella transmission and the international pork trade.
