Answer ( 1 )
salmonella has 2 virulence factors
*adhesion factor
*fimbriae
through these factors salmonella enter through different routes… save itself from the phagocytosis and complement and then attach the mucosal surface of the intestine and make the surface rough and cause disease as well. 1000-10000 number of dose of the salmonella requires to cause the disease… and their incubation period is between 12-72hr
hope u got the point
thanks
