摘要:AbstractThe present study was designed in order to estimate the prevalence ofSalmonellaspp. in broiler carcasses and human stools in Beni-Suef province (Egypt). Also, the serological identification and testing of the antimicrobial resistance/susceptibility of the isolates have been done. The obtained results revealed that the prevalence ofSalmonellain broiler meat, skin, and pooled giblets (liver, gizzard, and heart) was 76, 80, and 64%, respectively, while in the case of human stools the percentage of positive samples represented 4%. The predominant serotype in broiler carcasses wasSalmonellaInfantis (56.36%) followed bySalmonellaKentucky (25.45%), and thenSalmonellaEnteritidis with a percentage of 5.45%. However, two serotypes of each ofSalmonellaFerruch,SalmonellaKottbus, andSalmonellaVirchow were identified out of 55Salmonellaisolates, while the only isolate found in human stool samples was serotyped asSalmonellaInfantis. The results of antimicrobial resistance/susceptibility highlighted the existence of multiple antibiotic resistance (MAR) by several strains ofSalmonella.
