Screening under infection-relevant conditions reveals chemical sensitivity in multidrug resistant invasive non-typhoidal Salmonella (iNTS)

Bloodstream infections caused by invasive, non-typhoidal Salmonella (iNTS) are a major global health concern, particularly in Africa where the pathogenic variant of Salmonella Typhimurium sequence type (ST) 313 is dominant. Unlike S. Typhimurium strains that cause gastroenteritis, iNTS strains cause bloodstream infections and are resistant to multiple first-line antibiotics, thus limiting current treatment options. Here, we developed and …
