Salmonella, Shigella, and Yersinia cause a well-characterized spectrum of disease
in humans, ranging from asymptomatic carriage to hemorrhagic colitis and fatal
typhoidal fever. These pathogens are responsible for millions of cases of
food-borne illness in the United States each year, with substantial costs
measured in hospitalizations and lost productivity. In the developing world,
illness caused by these pathogens is not only more prevalent but also associated
with a greater case-fatality rate. Classic methods for identification rely on
selective media and serology, but newer methods based on mass spectrometry and
polymerase chain reaction show great promise for routine clinical testing.
