Abstract
The study of the effects of osmolarity and growth phase on Salmonells typhi adherence to and invasion of Henle 407 epithelial cells provides the first evidence of a clear overlap between these two environmental stimuli. High-osmolarity conditions are required in the late-log phas e for optimum induction of the adherent and invasive phenotypes.
