Salmonella species isolated from animal feed in Iraq.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Of 700 animal feed samples, 32 (4.5%) harbored Salmonella. The highest percentage of contamination was found in sheep feed and local protein. A total of 17 Salmonella serotypes were identified. The most frequent serotypes were Salmonella meleagridis. S. bornum, S. montevideo, and S. drypool. S. bornum was isolated for the first time in Iraq and from both local feed and its ingredients. The common somatic group found was that of Salmonella group C; then came groups E, G, B, and D. Three serotypes (S. enteritidis, S. california, and S. muenchen) seemed to form a link of infection among feed, food, patients, and carriers.

BACKGROUND Salmonella contaminated animal feed is a major source for introducing Salmonella into the animal derived food chain. Because soybeans frequently are contaminated with Salmonella, soybean meal used as animal feed material, a by-product of a "crushing plant" which produces oil from soybeans, can be important source of Salmonella in the animal feed. RESULTS During the 19-year period, ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Colistin Sulfate in Feed on the Controlling of Salmonella enteritidis Contamination in a Broiler Farm
The effect of colistin sulfate on reducing Salmonella enteritidis (S.enteritidis) infection in broilers and contamination from broiler carcasses was evaluated. 40000 birds in two separate houses were considered. Colistin sulfate was added in to the feed of the test group as 100g containing 1,200,000IU/ton of feed for the whole period (56 days). To isolate S.enteritidis, samples were taken from ...

Probiotics are live cultures of microbes; often lactic acid bacteria, but also some other species, which when fed to animals, improve their health and growth through altering the intestinal microbial balance. In the present research, healthy chickens’ gastrointestinal (GI) tracts were screened for the presence of lactic acid bacteria with probiotic properties. The probiotic properties of the is...
