Emerging Increase in Colistin Resistance Rates in Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica from Türkiye

Salmonella carriage and change in serovar distribution in broiler giblets at slaughterhouse level in Turkiye: first report using ISO 6579-1:2017 and ISO 6579-3:2014

“…Virchow in these studies are much lower than our findings (80.70%) ( Table 1 ). In Turkiye, up to our knowledge, despite no up-to-date data on Salmonella serovars identified from broiler giblets, a retail chicken meat study indicated S. Virchow (31.23%) as the second most dominant serovar in their samples ( Tok et al, 2023 ). S .…”

“…Within these, where sampling was done in slaughterhouses, 8.10% of the spleen samples and 9.60% of the spleen, liver, kidney, and heart samples were found positive for Salmonella enterica ( Alcantara et al, 2022 ), and Salmonella ( Hassan et al, 2020 ), respectively. In studies, where samples were collected from retail points, Salmonella prevalence was 0% in livers ( Tok et al, 2023 ), 10.07% in liver and gizzards ( Abdel-Kader et al, 2022 ), 5% in livers and 1.66% in gizzards ( Tohamy et al, 2022 ), 64% in liver, heart and gizzards ( Hassan et al, 2019 ), and 17.50, 20, and 0% in liver, heart and gizzards ( Telli et al, 2018 ), respectively. In a study, where the performance of a culture procedure with a latent one-way primary/pre-enrichment against direct streaking on to a differential medium was evaluated, 4.80% of chicken liver samples collected from different slaughterhouses were found to be contaminated with Salmonella ( Procura et al, 2019 ).…”
