ABSTRACT

Non-typhoidal Salmonella(NTS) serovars, sequences types, and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles have specific associations with animal and human infections in Vietnam. Antimicrobial resistance may have an effect on the manifestation of human NTS infections, with isolates fromasymptomatic individuals being more susceptible to antimicrobials than those associated with animals and human diarrhoea.
