Abstract
Salmonella enterica is one of the leading causes of foodborne disease worldwide. Infection with Salmonella results in symptoms ranging from mild gastroenteritis through to severe complications such as septicemia and even death. These infections place a significant financial and health burden on the economies of both developed and developing countries. The emergence of antibiotic resistance in bacteria is of current international concern and has added an extra dimension to the issue of foodborne salmonellosis. Understanding and controlling the spread of antibiotic resistance among foodborne Salmonella is a goal that requires a global approach but one that needs to be tailored to local scenarios.
