Among 13 serovars, S. Albany, S. Blockley, S. Havana,

and S. Redba as well as few isolates of S. Choleraesuis, S. Enteritidis, and S. Typhimurium lacked plasmid. All other serovars harbored at least one plasmid and differed in plasmid profile. Serovar association between chicken and human isolates S. Albany, S. Anatum, S. Choleraesuis, S. Derby, S. Enteritidis, and S. Typhimurium were in common for 13 chicken serovars and 66 human serovars and other 7 serovars of chicken isolates were not or barely observed in human (Table 2, 4 and 5). Total serovar number of each serogroup Decitabine decreased from serogroup C1, B, C2, E to D for human isolates (Table 4). Despite of the presence of 66 serovars, there were only presence of 11 H1 antigens including b, c, d, j, k, r, y, eh, g-complex, and z-complex and 5 H2 antigens including -, z6, lw, 1-complex, and en-complex (Table 4). Common antigens in all serogroups were “”i”" for H1 antigen: and “”-”" for H2 antigen. In compared the chicken and human isolates from Taiwan, United Kingdom and United States, the common serovars were S. Typhimurium, S. Enteritidis, S. Anatum, and S. Derby with

common antigens of . “”g complex; i; z4,z24; and e,h”" for H1 antigen and “”- and 1 complex”" for H2 antigen selleckchem (Table 5).
