Spanish term or phrase: acantonar/acantonamiento
"A medida que avanza la edad de los animales existe una mayor variabilidad de serotipos acantonados en tonsilas, resultados esperados ya que la posibilidad de contacto con diferentes cepas a lo largo de su vida es mayor"

"Además, si analizamos los resultados del PFGE (Fig. 1) observamos la gran diversidad genética de las cepas pertenecientes a este serotipo, característica que puede influir en su capacidad de adaptación y acantonamiento"

agree  Joseph Tein: "established" sounds most apt to me -- strains of microorganisms that have become established in the tonsils.

colonised / colonisation


Explanation:
It is not known why several of the donor pigs given a high inoculum dose (106 CFU) did not shed the strain past 4 days p.i. It is likely that there are some individuals that are more resistant to colonization than others (N. A. Cornick, unpublished observations).

Collectively, our data suggest that both the inoculum dose and an individuals' susceptibility to colonization are important factors in the persistent shedding of this organism by some animals.

agree  John Speese: Colonized (US) or colonised (British) is used frequently for microorganisms, and established is good too.
