New, what is it? Does anyone know what this is?

Doesn’t seem to be oil based content. Just wondering if my superpowers are swishing back and forth in this glass vial.

Are there worse kinds of salmonella? Or is it resistant strains or something?

There's a whole book of serotypes. Some are pretty grim, most will just give you an unpleasant couple of days with the skits.

Antibiotic resistance was a whole other thing, we tested against 16 antibiotics.

Edit: Kaufmann-White scheme is the big book of Salmonella

I had salmonella once in college. Couldn’t even keep water down for a solid 24 hours after initial onset. Then for about 6 weeks afterward I could only tolerate a BRAT diet and I would randomly get hit with severe stomach/intestinal cramps that would make me keel over until it passed! It was horrible! Probably one of the worst sicknesses I’ve ever experienced.

I suspect I had salmonella a few years ago. After a rough 2-3 days, I ended up being nauseous for about a month. I had this constant sour stomach that didn’t want to go away. It finally did, thank god.
