salmonellosis
- n a kind of food poisoning caused by eating foods contaminated with Salmonella typhimurium
- No cases of salmonellosis have yet been attributed to Starlac, but neither the FDA nor Borden was taking chances.
- Indeed, there are hundreds of diseases, including bovine tuberculosis, salmonellosis, psittacosis, rabies and ringworm, which are directly transmissible from animals to people.
- The culprit was Salmonella newport, a strain of bacteria that normally accounts for only a dozen of the salmonellosis cases in the state in a year.
