Abstract
Typhoid fever is commonly seen in the developing countries, and the acquired resistance of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi to antibiotics is a serious problem for the treatment of this disease. Before 1993, no nalidixic acid (NAL)-resistant strain was found in Vietnam. Since then, however, NAL- asKeywords
