Abstract  This study was designed to evaluate the viability, prophage induction, invasive ability, and relative gene expression in lysogenic Salmonella Typhimurium exposed to the simulated gastric juice (SGJ) at pH 2 (SGJ-2), 3 (SGJ-3), 4 (SGJ-4), and 5 (SGJ-5) for 30 min followed by 0.5 % bile salts for 2 h. The susceptibility of lysogenic S. Typhimurium increased with decreasing pH value and increasing bile salt concentration. The lysogenic S. Typhimurium cells were least susceptible to SGJ-4 and SGJ-5, showing
