Genetic Characterization of <i>Salmonella</i> Infantis with Multiple Drug Resistance Profiles Isolated from a Poultry-Farm in Chile

<i>Salmonella</i> comprises over 2500 serotypes and foodborne contamination associated with this pathogen remains an important health concern worldwide. During the last decade, a shift in serotype prevalence has occurred as traditionally less prevalent serotypes are increasing in frequen...
