*iNTS: invasive non-typhoidal Salmonella.
†Total 8 countries: Burkina Faso, Ghana, Guinea-Bissau, Kenya, Madagascar, Senegal, South Africa and Tanzania presented in this table. No iNTS isolates were yielded in Sudan and Ethiopia.
‡Other sequence types of S. Enteritidis detected: 1 ST183 (isolate yielded from Ghana; age/sex unknown due to missing data) and 1 ST2107 (from Ghana; a 22-year-old woman); both non-MDR and no antimicrobial resistant genes detected.
§Sequence types of the other NTS serovars: 1 Muenster ST321 (yielded from Ghana; age/sex/year unknown due to missing data), 1 Poona ST308 (yielded from Ghana in 2008; age/sex unknown due to missing data), 1 Stanleyville ST339 (yielded from Ghana; age/sex/year unknown due to missing data), 1 Virchow ST359 (from Ghana; age/sex/year unknown due to missing data), 3 Choleraesui ST145 (two isolates yielded from 1-year-old female infants in 2010 and 2011 and 1 from a 3-year-old female infant in 2012; all from Guinea-Bissau), 1 unknown ST2533 from Tanzania.
