Storage of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium
strains in soil and water microcosms resulted in loss of culturability on standard plating media. Prior incubation in buffered peptone water
supplemented with ferrioxamine E markedly extended the time that
bacteria were recoverable by plating, except in the case of mutants
deficient in ferrioxamine E uptake.
