NCBI PD link for serovar Heidelberg: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pathogens/isolates/#(taxgroup_name:%22Salmonella%20enterica%22)%20AND%20computed_types:(%22serotype=Heidelberg%22)
Genetic characteristics: Serovar Heidelberg has been found to be monophyletic. Previously, a a phage typing scheme was developed for serovar Heidelberg in Canada; this scheme recognizes 49 phage types. S. Heidelberg accounts for the 8.6% of ceftriaxone-resistant Salmonella isolated from humans in the U.S. SARA33 is a multidrug resistant (MDR) strain. This strain was found, in silico, to contain a novel integron cassette; in addition, it was found to carry the following resistance genes: aac(6′)-ly, aadA5, aadB, aa(6′)-33, and aadA1, sul1 and sul2, blaOXA-2 and blaTEM, tetD. Resistance genes in S. Heidelberg have been identified in the chromosome (resistant islands) and in plasmids. Different incompatibility types (A/C, FIB, HI2) have been identified in the plasmids that carried resistance genes in S. Heidelberg. A MDR S. Heidelberg strain (resistant to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, kanamycin, streptomycin, sulfisoxazole, and tetracycline) was found to cause a multistate outbreak linked to the Foster Farms brand chicken. Etter et al. analyzed a total of nine Heidelberg isolates collected during the outbreak investigation and revealed that (i) six Salmonella Heidelberg isolates linked to the foodborne outbreak exhibited increased heat tolerance, (ii) one of these heat-tolerant isolates also demonstrated enhanced biofilm formation under stressful conditions, (iii) heat stress triggered higher expression of multidrug efflux and virulence genes in Salmonella Heidelberg, and (iv) the outbreak-related isolates appeared to be transcriptionally prepared to better withstand processing stresses and potentially to cause infection.
