Objectives: Salmonella is one of the main dangerous opportunistic microorganisms, and it can persist in viable but nonculturable (VBNC) state in different foodstuffs, water, human or animal organisms etc. Thus it is important to know more about this form of bacterial existence. Methodology: In this study Salmonella Typhimurium 79 strain was used, in which RP4 plasmid was introduced. Prior to entering nonculturability inducing conditions cells of the strain were preincubated in one of the substrates that are typical sources of Salmonella contamination. Several additives and conditions were evaluated in order to revert nonculturable Salmonella into vegetative state. Results: Influence of preincubation in different substrates on speed and totality of entry into nonculturable state was determined. It was shown that preincubation in soil had the greatest impact on the Salmonella population. Control population, preincubated in nutrient broth, was the slowest to enter nonculturable state. Tested reversion factors had effects at different concentrations. The most efficient, though the slowest, way to revert Salmonella was to incubate VBNC cells in 0.9% NaCl. Conclusion: Obtained data reveal some reasons for strain differences in speed of formation of VBNC cells. Reversion was achieved using several supplements and conditions.
