Serotypes of S. enterica, specifically Typhi and Paratyphi, lead to the disease.

OpenStax Biology 2nd Edition

https://openstax.org/details/books/microbiology/

Microbiology covers the scope and sequence requirements for a single-semester microbiology course for non-majors. The book presents the core concepts of microbiology with a focus on applications for careers in allied health. The pedagogical features of the text make the material interesting and accessible while maintaining the career-application focus and scientific rigor inherent in the subject matter. Microbiology’s art program enhances students’ understanding of concepts through clear and effective illustrations, diagrams, and photographs.

Microbiology is produced through a collaborative publishing agreement between OpenStax and the American Society for Microbiology Press. The book aligns with the curriculum guidelines of the American Society for Microbiology.

Food intoxication caused by Staphylococcal bacteria associated with raw or undercooked and cooked foods including meat

Staphylococcal Food Poisoning

GI infections associated with Shigella bacteria 

Shigellosis (Bacillary Dysentery)

GI illness associated with exogenous Salmonella bacteria infection (mostly commonly with the S. enterica serotype), caused by ingesting contaminated food, handling eggshells, and exposure to some animals

Salmonellosis

Typhoid Fever

Commonly transmitted E. coli infections include:

- Enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) 
- Enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC)
- Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC)
- Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC)

Commonly Transmitted E. coli Infections

GI illness caused by Vibrio cholera, characterized by diarrhea, and associated with poor sanitation, often spread by contaminated food and water

Cholera

Gastroenteritis caused by Camplyobacter jejuni bacteria

Campylobacter jejuni Gastroenteritis

Ulcers of the stomach or duodenum associated with Helicobacter pylori bacteria

Peptic Ulcers

Foodborne disease caused by Clostridium perfringens and associated with undercooked foods

Clostridium perfingens Gasteroenteritis

Diarrhea caused by C. difficile overgrowth due to with long-term antibiotic use

Antibiotic-associated Diarrhea

Gram-positive and endospore-forming Bacillus cereus bacteria can lead to foodborne diseases, especially after eating food left out at room temperature for too long.

Foodborne Illness Due to Bacillus cereus

Serotypes of Yersinia bacteria, Y. enterocolitica and Y. pseudotuberculosis, can cause gastroenteritis and intoxication, with infection occuring via fecal-route route or ingestion of fecal-contaminated food or water. Illness is mild.
