No, Salmonella species are generally not lactose fermenters. They typically do not ferment lactose, which is a characteristic used to differentiate them from other bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, that do ferment lactose. Instead, Salmonella primarily utilizes other sugars for energy, and their inability to ferment lactose is a key feature in microbiological identification.

How does salmonella get its energy?
They are facultative anaerobes which means that while like people they can use oxygen as their source for electrons in reduction reactions during metabolism, they can also get energy without oxygen through fermentation. Salmonella primarily uses phospholipids as their energy source. Their most common way of getting them is by taking it from their host's bile through protein channels on their membranes.
Does salmonella have organelles?
No. Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a bacterial species. Bacteria differ from eukaryotes (such as animals, plants, and fungi) in that the chromosome is not surrounded by a membrane. In eukaryotes the nuclear membrane surrounds the DNA thus creating a compartment in the cell known as the nucleus.
