[Salmonella typhimurium population in water environment under the influence of temperature].
The strategy of the adaptation of S. typhimurium population to water environment under the influence of temperature factor was studied by scanning electron microscopy. Salmonellae were found to adhere to the surface of the Daphnia chitin covering. The study revealed that S. typhimurium population existed in water in the form of covered microcolonies as well as in the form of spheroplast-type cells and small cells in the L-form, joined with bands. The viability of salmonellae in water environment was studied without interaction and following interaction with Daphnia.
