A temporary cholesterol-rich diet and bacterial extracellular matrix factors favor Salmonella spp. biofilm formation in the cecum by Alonso Cruz-Cruz, Megan E. Schreeg, John S. Gunn

“…Three to five percent of infected individuals become chronic carriers, a state in which gallstone biofilm formation facilitates spread of the bacteria in feces. Notably, surgical removal of the gallbladder (GB) in some chronic carriers (22%) does not guarantee the elimination of the bacteria, and the rationale for this remains poorly understood. …”
