Here, we report the genome sequences of two Salmonella enterica serovar Dublin strains, 03EB8736SAL and 03EB8994SAL, isolated from raw-milk cheese and milk filtrate, respectively. Analysis of the draft genomes of the two isolates reveals the presence of the viaA, viaB, and ompB loci of the Vi capsular polysaccharide antigen (Vi antigen).

Introduction: Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi is the causative agent of typhoid fever with over 22 million cases and over 200,000 deaths reported annually. A vaccine is much needed for use in young children and the Novartis Vaccines Institute for Global Health (NVGH) is developing a conjugate vaccine which targets S. Typhi Vi capsular polysaccharide. Methodology: Here we describe a method suitable for industrial scale production of the Vi antigen based on expression by a Citrobacter line. We optimized the production of Vi by selecting a suitable Citrobacter strain (Citrobacter 328) that yields high and stable expression of Vi in chemically defined medium under industrial-scale fermentation conditions. Results: Vi-CRM197 made using Vi from Citrobacter 328 elicited high anti-Vi antibody levels in mice and rabbits. Conclusions: Citrobacter 328 is a suitable strain for production of Vi for conjugate anti-Typhi vaccines. Being a BSL-1 organism, which grows in defined medium and stably produces high yields of Vi, it offers excellent potential for safe production of inexpensive vaccines for populations at risk of typhoid fever.

CdTe QD based stripping voltammetry for Vi capsular polysaccharide detection. The technique has provided an insight into the competence of CdTe QD and GNP immuno-conjugates. This is a novel approach to characterize the efficiency of immuno-conjugates of QDs and GNPs.
