Dalle Zotte A., Tasoniero G., Puolanne E., Remignon H., Cecchinato M., Catelli E., Cullere M. (2017): Effect of “Wooden Breast” appearance on poultry meat quality, histological traits, and lesions characterization. Czech J. Anim. Sci., 62, 51–57. The purposes of the study were to investigate the effects of Wooden Breast (WB) myodegeneration on poultry meat quality and to give a contribution in ...

Salmonella Typhimurium is frequently isolated from chicken meat. The main purpose of current study was to analyze the decontamination S. by using different concentrations chitosan, lactic acid and chitosan combination on broiler carcasses. inoculated carcasses at 108 cfu/mL in eight groups. Then, contaminated were treated with 1%, 2% 0.1%, 0.05% for 5, 10, 15 min. Also, effects (0.05% chitosan-...

This study was undertaken to investigate the efficacy of alkaline and acidic electrolyzed (EO) water in preventing and removing fecal contaminants and killing Campylobacter jejuni on poultry carcasses under simulated industrial processing conditions. New York dressed and defeathered chicken carcasses spot-inoculated with cecal material or C. jejuni were subjected to spraying treatment with alka...

The demand for safe food has increased in the market in recent years. However, even with technological advances poultry meat is still susceptible to bacterial contamination. This study thus aimed to assess the microbiological quality of chilled broiler carcasses regarding the prevalence of Campylobacter spp., Listeria spp. and Salmonella spp. The study was conducted in poultry slaughterhouses o...

conclusions the high prevalence of tet (o) resistance gene along with new detection of tet (a) resistance gene in campylobacter spp. isolated from poultry carcasses revealed an extensive tetracycline resistance among campylobacter isolates from poultry in iran. it emphasized the need for cautious use of tetracycline in poultry production to decrease the extension of tetracycline-resistant campy...

Background: The antibiotic resistance is considered as one of the biggest public health concerns in most countries. The aim of this study was to determine antibiotic resistance pattern of Escherichia coli isolated from chickens with colibacillosis in Yazd, Iran. Methods: A total of 200 carcasses of Ross chickens with colibacillosis were collected from farms located around Yazd, central Iran. A...

Mapping the number and distribution of Salmonella on poultry carcasses will help guide better design of processing procedures to reduce or eliminate this human pathogen from poultry. A selective plating media with multiple antibiotics (xylose-lysine agar medium [XL] containing N-( 2-hydrox yethyl)piperazineN'(2ethanesujfonic acid) and the antibiotics chioramphenicol, ampiciflin, tetracycline, a...

Each chicken carcass intended for U.S. consumers is mandated to be inspected by Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) inspectors for its wholesomeness at the processing plants. Fluorescence responses of wholesome and unwholesome chicken carcasses were characterized and further evaluated for potential on-line applications for detection and classification of wholesome and unwholesome chicken ...

Transmission of Campylobacter to humans has been prominently associated with mishandling or improperly preparing contaminated poultry carcasses. The number of organisms per carcass represents an important measure of human exposure to the agent. Therefore, we wished to estimate this public exposure over 1 yr among Italian broiler carcasses. We sampled 213 broiler carcasses from rinse water sampl...
