Abstract
Mukherjee, S. and Singh, V.P. 1998. Plasmid profile and virulence analysis of Salmonella Entertidis (Indian poultry isolates). J. Appl. Anim. Res., 14: 99–102.
Nine S. Enteritidis strains, which were mainly poultry isolates, were characterized by studying their virulence and plasmid profile. All the nine strains were found to be lethal to mice when inoculated intraperitoneally and E 2440 strain was found to be the most virulent. All the strains possessed a single plasmid of approximately 36 MDa (54 kb) size which appeared to be the same as serotype-specific plasmid reported earlier. Besides, strain E 2442 has been found to possess three additional plasmids of sizes approximately 16.5 MDa (24.8 kb), 6 MDa (9 kb)and 2 MDa(3 kb).
