Prevalence of salmonella and campylobacter contamination in manitoba Swine carcasses
Abstract:
Muscle samples from the neck and diaphragm and fecal samples were collected from five hogs from each of 50 lots of market hogs at three Manitoba abattoirs. Environmental samples were also collected. Each sample was tested for Salmonella contamination, and tissue and fecal samples were tested for Campylobacter.Salmonella was isolated from 34 (4.1%) of 821 samples, with 17 of the isolates coming from one lot of hogs and their concurrent environment. Campylobacter was isolated from 175 (26.3%) of 666 samples. Fifty-five percent were Campylobacter coli and 45% were Campylobacter jejuni.
