OverviewAI-generated summary

Bijay K. Khajanchi's research focuses on the genetic and molecular aspects of microbial pathogens, particularly *Salmonella* species. His work investigates the diversity, dissemination, and genetic relatedness of antimicrobial resistance genes and mobile genetic elements, such as plasmids, within enteric bacteria. Khajanchi has published extensively on the genomic characterization of *Salmonella enterica* serovars, including Schwarzengrund and Javiana, examining their virulence potential, distribution, and antimicrobial resistance profiles.

His recent publications include studies on the development of databases for antimicrobial resistance plasmid transfer genes and in silico analyses of these resistance mechanisms. Khajanchi also explores the expression of genes located on specific plasmid types under varying growth conditions. His scholarship metrics include an h-index of 21, with 49 publications and over 1,256 citations, designating him as a highly cited researcher.

Khajanchi collaborates with researchers from institutions including the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff, and the National Center for Toxicological Research. His recent activity indicates ongoing engagement in research in this field.
