The invention relates to a method of determining an infection of a patient with Salmonella species potentially resistant to antimicrobial drug treatment, a method of selecting a treat- ment of a patient suffering from an antibiotic resistant Sal- monella infection, and a method of determining an antibiotic resistance profile for bacterial microorganisms of Salmonella species, as well as computer program products used in these methods. In an exemplary method, a sample 1 is used for mo- lecular testing 2, and then a molecular fingerprint 3 is tak- en. The result is then compared to a reference library 4, and the result 5 is reported. |
