I haven't read the books, please forgive that fact.

So Sarge using a full crate of plasma grenades can give him enough plasmatic radiation to prevent the Flood from infesting his body, wouldn't the Elites and Grunts be impervious to infestation along with the Master Chief? they handle Plasma grenades all of the time. Or do the shields of the Elites and the Chief prevent radiation from affecting them? That would hypothetically make a Grunt a non-carrier, all hail the Grunt and his grunty thirst!

yea....well i guess that explains some stuff....also the hunters?....i guess there a non-carrier also...maybe because of the fuel rod gun ( i dont believe its a fuel rod gun cause it doesnt shoot the same but anyways) beacause of the fuel rod gun thing in there arm might give off some radiation of some sort....idk just another idea from the crAzy donut guy...

Im not so sure it didnt happen... You know the flood with the tentacle type things for hands? maybe that WOULD have been the back of a hunters head. Makesa wonder eh?

Sergeant Johnson, (Sarge, the badass black dude) survives the flood infection due to a brain disorder that has muddled his brainwave patterns, although this doesnt affect him physically, The flood infected him, effectively got lost and died. He now has the Healing powers of the flood, it has nothing to do with "plasmatic radiation."

Your half right, he does have a nerve disorder that did what you said. But he got this disorder from using an entire crate of plasma grenades. And to the other posters no this would not make the grunts or Elites immune because it happened because he used an "entire crate" all at once, it was the combined effect of like 50 plasma grenades all being activated all at once.
