The Lilleengen scheme for typing Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium consists of 12 tailed phages. Ten phages are podoviruses and morphologically identical to Salmonella phage P22. Two phages are siphoviruses and identical to flagella-specific phage chi.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008854	Microscopy, Electron	Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen.	Electron Microscopy
D001434	Bacteriophage Typing	A technique of bacterial typing which differentiates between bacteria or strains of bacteria by their susceptibility to one or more bacteriophages.	Phage Typing,Typing, Bacteriophage,Typing, Phage
D012483	Salmonella Phages	Viruses whose host is Salmonella. A frequently encountered Salmonella phage is BACTERIOPHAGE P22.	Salmonella Bacteriophages,Bacteriophage, Salmonella,Bacteriophages, Salmonella,Salmonella Bacteriophage,Salmonella Phage
D012486	Salmonella typhimurium	A serotype of Salmonella enterica that is a frequent agent of Salmonella gastroenteritis in humans. It also causes PARATYPHOID FEVER.	Salmonella typhimurium LT2
D017100	Bacteriophage P22	A species of temperate bacteriophage in the genus P22-like viruses, family PODOVIRIDAE, that infects SALMONELLA species. The genome consists of double-stranded DNA, terminally redundant, and circularly permuted.	Enterobacteria phage P22,P22 Phage,Phage P22,P22 Phages,Phage, P22,Phages, P22
