When we eat or drink something which contains salmonella the bacteria enter our body and it travels through our intestine. Here bacteria can survive by using the gut micro biota as nutrients and can cross the intestinal mucus layer to reach epithelial cells which line the intestine. The disease starts when the Bacteria start to attack these cells. The second step are to determine that whether the attacker bacteria are typhoidal or non-typhoidal.

Listeria bacteria: it is a bacterium which causes listeriosis. It is a gram-positive coco bacillus bacterium. It is aerobic and tolerant to acid-salt and cold. According to the web (http://www.food.gov.uk>microbiology) number of cases of listeriosis is lower than salmonella and campylobacter. This disease places a big responsibility for public health and economics in UK because of high hospitalization and mortality rate. Most people infected with listeria are hospitalizing and nearly a third of them dies. Listeria is not really common to foods; it is present in soil and water. Food can be contaminated during processing or producing. Pasteurized milk, soft cheese, ready-to-eat meats and unpasteurised dairy products are the major source of listeria. (M Madigan, J Martinko, K Bender, D Buckley Staha 2015) states that, even those foods are stored at refrigerator at (40) the bacteria can survive because they are psychrotolarent. They produce a fatty acids branched-chain which keeps the cytoplasm membrane to function as cold
