A member asked:

How does oxygen presence (low concentration or high con.) affect the life span of the salmonella bacterium once it has already invaded the cell?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Peroxisomes : Intracellular organelles called peroxisomes often use reactive oxygen species in order to help kill organisms like salmonella. But you might want to look at your class notes or read your textbook in order to help you with your homework.
