The virulence of specific strains in humans and other animals is frequently serovar specific. Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi causes typhoid fever in humans, but no disease is associated with experimental infections of mice (8).
Glucose is the primary energy source for the body's cells and the only energy source for the brain and nervous system. A steady supply must be available for use, and a relatively constant level of glucose must be maintained in the blood. A few different protocols may be used to evaluate the glucose level in the blood.lucose is the primary energy source for the body's cells and the only energy source for the brain and nervous system.

Providing energy and regulating blood glucose. Glucose is the only sugar used by the body to provide energy for its tissues. Therefore, all digestible polysaccharides, disaccharides, and monosaccharides must eventually be converted into glucose or a metabolite of glucose by various liver enzymes. Because of its significant importance to proper cellular function, blood glucose levels must be kept relatively constant.
