investigation of morbidity and antibacterial resistance of campylobacter spp. sample isolation from broilers slaughter in rafsanjan city using basic culture method

campylobacter is one of the main potentials for causing diarrhea and gastroenteritis in human saityand. one of the main sources of these bacteria is meat. method and material: 100 samples of broiler’s meat which were slaughtered in slaughter halls all over rafsanjan city were collected during the first 5 months of the year 1389. this study was conducted to determine the prevalence and antimicrobial resistance of campylobacter spp; isolated from poultry meat slaughtered in rafsanjan slaughter houses. during this study, 31 samples (31%) were discovered to be infected and after passing chemical analysis 19 samples (61.29%) were recognized to be campylobacter jejuni and 12 samples (38.71%) were declared campylobacter coli. antibacterial sensitity tests revealed that these bacteria are most susceptible to erythromycin and ciprofloxacin but resistant to gentamycin and co-trimoxazole. this study showed a high contamination of broiler’s meat to the campylobacter which is consumed as a food source. and as favas concerned about the zoonotic nature of this bacteria, it is expected to have a better attention over this matter.
