Microbiological and genomic investigations of invasive Salmonella enterica serovar Panama from a large outbreak in Taiwan

Salmonella Panama was considered an invasive non-typhoidal Salmonella (iNTS) serovar. Comprehensive clinical, microbiological, and genomic studies on S. Panama are scarce. We aimed to characterize the clinical and microbiological characteristics of S. Panama infection. Virulence mechanism of S. Pana...

Zusammenfassung:	Salmonella Panama was considered an invasive non-typhoidal Salmonella (iNTS) serovar. Comprehensive clinical, microbiological, and genomic studies on S. Panama are scarce. We aimed to characterize the clinical and microbiological characteristics of S. Panama infection. Virulence mechanism of S. Panama and other iNTS serovars were also examined. Based on data from the longitudinal surveillance system for Salmonella deployed in Taiwan since 2004, a case–control study was undertaken to evaluate clinical characteristics of S. Panama infection during an outbreak in 2015–2016. Cellular experiments were conducted to compare pathogenicity of S. Panama and other iNTS with S. Typhimurium. Most patients (41/44, 93.2%) infected by S. Panama were
