Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Salmonella infections represent a significant public health challenge globally, with diverse strains posing threats to human and animal populations. This Special Issue of Microorganisms aims to comprehensively explore the latest research, innovations, and strategies in understanding, preventing, and managing Salmonella infections.

Scope and Focus: this Special Issue seeks to delve into various aspects of Salmonella infections, including, but not limited to, the following:

  1. Epidemiology and Surveillance: an examination of global trends, outbreaks, and surveillance methods to track Salmonella prevalence and distribution;
  2. Molecular Biology and Pathogenesis: insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying Salmonella pathogenesis, including virulence factors, host–pathogen interactions, and microbial adaptation strategies;
  3. Antimicrobial Resistance: investigations of antimicrobial resistance patterns in Salmonella strains, mechanisms of resistance development, and implications for treatment and control strategies;
  4. One-Health Perspectives: an exploration of the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental factors in Salmonella transmission dynamics, with a focus on interdisciplinary approaches and collaborative efforts;
  5. Prevention and Control Strategies: an evaluation of novel preventive measures, vaccines, therapeutic interventions, and public health policies aimed at reducing the burden of Salmonella infections.
