Campylobacter is the leading cause of bacterial diarrhoeal disease worldwide, with raw and undercooked poultry meat and products the primary source of infection. Colonization of broiler chicken flocks with Campylobacter has proved difficult to prevent, even with high levels of biosecurity. Dipteran flies are proven carriers of Campylobacter and their ingress into broiler houses may contribute t...

Dust control tests of experimental enclosed layer and floor feeding broiler houses were performed with ultra sonic sprayer units which have some advantages such as 1) low cost, 2) low electric power consumption, 3) forcing the charge and 4) unnecessary to lay pipes to spray. With spraying 2 % solution of emulsified canola oil in layer house, the concentration of dust with aerodynamic diameter (...

This study aimed to identify the sources and routes of transmission of Campylobacter in intensively reared poultry farms in the Republic of Ireland. Breeder flocks and their corresponding broilers housed in three growing facilities were screened for the presence of Campylobacter species from November 2006 through September 2007. All breeder flocks tested positive for Campylobacter species (with...
