Campylobacter Spp

<p>Campylobacteriosis and salmonellosis are the most frequently reported zoonoses and among the most common causes of diarrhoeal illness in the European Union and the United States, and their incidence appears to be increasing. <em>Campylobacter </em>species are routinely found in poultry, swine, cattle, dairy cows and sheep. So far, there are few descriptions of <em>Campylobacter </em>isolation from rabbits. Rabbit meat is a common item in the Mediterranean diet. In this context, the aim of the present study was to investigate the occurrence of <em>Campylobacter </em>spp. in healthy rabbits reared in intensive farms in the Alto Palancia region, eastern Spain. Caecal contents from 70 healthy does reared on 7 different farms were collected. Bacteriological culture was performed in accordance with ISO 10272-1:2006. All samples tested negative for <em>Campylobacter </em>spp. To our knowledge, this is the first study in which comprehensive monitoring was specifically carried out in order to provide data on the occurrence of thermophilic <em>Campylobacter </em>spp. in large intensive rabbit farms in Spain. However, further microbiological studies throughout the Spanish territory are needed to determine the prevalence and risk of other foodborne pathogens in rabbits at farm level.</p>

The article presents the data of the analysis of the control strategy of food zoonoses (Campylobacter, E.coli O157, Enterobacteriacae, Listeria, Salmonella, Enterococcus) on the basis of chemical and physical decontamination methods at the stage of poultry processing in the conditions of slaughter enterprises of the EU. The factors of transmission of pathogens that determine the risks of contamination of poultry carcasses during the technological processes of transportation and slaughter of poultry, nutrition, cooling and heat treatment of carcasses are analyzed. It also analyzes scientific developments to reduce the risk to human health, depending on measures to reduce microbiological contamination by pathogens of broiler meat zoonoses. The article presents data on the effective strategy poultry food control zoonoses in the European Union based on the methods of reducing microbial contamination of poultry carcasses during processing. We conducted information by analyzing statistics and materials and reports published in national and international journals, study and systematization of scientific literature, the official reports of the International Program of WHO for the control and supervision of zoonoses in Europe, ESFA (European Agency for Safety food), the Center for disease control in the USA, documents regulating controls zoonosis poultry in the European Union. Continuous monitoring of food zoonoses pathogens of poultry is effective. Collecting information on the use of antimicrobials in zoonoses control programs in poultry is important. The data on the effective control bacterial pathogens at transportation poultry and during the slaughter process are: exposure without food, sanitary treatment of cages,  identification the party with an high level of microbiological contamination, fixing the cloaca and prevent faecal contamination of carcasses, plan of slaughter at the slaughterhouse (defining positive poultry). We have also analyzed the effective control measures of the bacterial contamination of poultry carcasses in terms of companies engaged in the slaughter and processing of poultry.

Campylobacter Spp

Campylobacteriosis is the most common gastrointestinal bacterial disease in the European Union (EU). Wild birds are one of the natural reservoirs of these pathogens. In this study we tested cloacal swabs of 643 gulls captured on rubbish tip in Zagreb, Croatia for the presence of Campylobacter spp. and found 168 Campylobacter positive samples. We used multilocus sequence typing (MLST) to genotype 62 random C. jejuni isolates from gulls, 24 isolates from broiler caeca, 27 isolates from broiler neck skins and 23 human isolates. Altogether, we identified 44 different STs, from which 19 were newly described. Most of the new STs (14) originate from gulls. Although humans and broilers share the majority of STs and isolates from gulls are separated from these, there was one ST present in all three hosts: 45. Additionally antimicrobial susceptibility to six antimicrobials was performed on 123 C. jejuni strains isolated from broiler caeca (n = 22), neck skins of broilers (n = 20), gulls cloacal swabs (n = 50) and human faeces (n = 31) by the broth microdilution method. Results show lower resistance of gull isolates to NAL and CIP, while resistance to TET was as high as in human and broiler isolates.
