Salmonella Biofilms Tolerate Hydrogen Peroxide by a Combination of Extracellular Polymeric Substance Barrier Function and Catalase Enzymes
The ability of Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi) to cause chronic gallbladder infections is dependent on biofilm growth on cholesterol gallstones. Non-typhoidal Salmonella (e.g. S. Typhimurium) also utilize the biofilm state to persist in the host and the environment....
