“…This is in line with the findings of (Risiquat 2013;Adenaike et al, 2016). Contamination of Kunun-aya may occur at any point since the drink, or the tiger nut is not boiled or heat-treated before preparation, and Zobo drinks may also be contaminated during cooling of the hot extract, addition of flavours and sweeteners or dispensing of the extracts into nylons and bottles (Risiquat, 2013;Ifeanyichukwu et al, 2016). Water used in processing has been identified as a major source of contamination.…”

“…In comparison, it is relatively resistant to Ceprorex 0(0%), Ciprofloxacin 3 (4%), Gentamycin 6(8), and Nalidixic acid 5(7%). The isolates from Zobo showed sensitivity to Tarivid 5(7%), Ciprofloxacin 5(7%), ceprorex 4(5%) and Septrin 3(4%), while resistant to Nalidixic acid 2(3%) and Ampillicin 1(1%) (Adenaike et al, 2016;Ifeanyichukwu et al, 2016). CONCLUSION Salmonella isolates obtained from the drinks suggested that Kunun-aya were highly contaminated by Salmonella, while Zobo drink was less contaminated.…”

“…Salmonella are a common bacterial pathogen implicated in most food-borne infections. The organism causes salmonellosis, and it is also the leading cause of salmonellosis which can be transmitted through the food chain, especially in locally prepared drinks where proper hygiene and infection control practices are not observed (Ifeanyichukwu et al, 2016). Out of the 150 samples of Kunun-aya and Zobo drinks analysed, only 38 (25.3%) were positive for Salmonella.…”

The research was conducted to isolate and conduct an antimicrobial susceptibility test of Salmonella species from Zobo and Kunun-aya drinks sold at the University of Maiduguri, Borno State, Nigeria. A total of 150 samples were collected from different sales points using a systematic sampling technique. The samples were analysed using standard bacteriological procedures and antimicrobial susceptibility tests using the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion technique. The results showed that 38(25.3%) samples were positive for Salmonella. Kunun-aya drink has 28(37%), and Zobo has 5(6.7%) of the Salmonella isolates, which indicated that Kunun aya had the highest level of contamination than Zobo drink. The Salmonella isolates were sensitive to Tarivid 18(24%), Ciprofloxacin 18(24%), Gentamycin 18(24%), and Ampillicin 15(20%). It was found resistant to Nalidixic acid 14(19%), Augmentin 14(19%) and Septrin 9(12%). The contamination observed in the Kunun-aya, and less contamination in Zobo drinks may be due to the product used and improper sanitary conditions during its processing. The presence of Salmonella in the beverages may pose serious public health concerns as some of this bacterium is implicated in causing foodborne diseases, thus the need to develop Good Manufacturing Processes (GMP) and post production preservation and packaging techniques.

“…Salmonellosis is one of the most important foodborne diseases in humans, which has been increasing in recent years (Harsha et al, 2011). Salmonellosis can be transmitted through the food chain, especially poultry products in the absence of proper hygiene and infection control practices (Ifeanyichukwu et al, 2016;Ramatla et al, 2019). Contaminated feces excreted into the environment could be a source of the bacteria to naive hosts, sustaining its existence over the layer farm environment, therefore, feces played an important role in Salmonella dispersal (Carrique-Mas and Davies 2008;Oloso et al, 2018).…”

Non-Typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) are substantial foodborne pathogens that lead to bacteremia, gastroenteritis, and focal infection. Poultry is one of the usual provenances for the development of multidrug-resistance NTS. This problem has increased in developing countries with the indiscriminate use of antibiotics in the poultry production system. The current study aimed to determine the prevalence and tendency of antimicrobial resistance of zoonotic Salmonella spp. A total of 601 samples, including cloacal samples (150) eggshell (150), egg content (15 pooled samples), layer hen carcasses (150), hand swab (68) and stool samples (68) from poultry workers, were collected from five layer chicken farms. Isolation of NTS was performed by using different cultural and biochemical methods. Moreover, Salmonella isolates were evaluated for antimicrobial susceptibility using the disc diffusion method. The cloacal samples and stool samples showed the prevalence of Salmonella spp. at approximately similar rates of 4.7% and 4.4%, respectively. Chicken isolates were identified as S. Enteritidis, S. Typhimurium, and S. Gallinarum while the human isolates were only S. Typhimurium and S. Enteritidis. The prevalence of the NTS on the surface of the eggshells (7.3%) was higher than that in the other samples. Among 12 antimicrobials tested, 86.4% resistance was found to streptomycin and oxytetracycline followed by neomycin and erythromycin (77.3%), norfloxacin and ampicillin (68.2%) across the study sites. Kanamycin and gentamicin remained sensitive by 95.5% and 90.9%, respectively. The present study indicated that layer chickens and its products are important sources for human infection with multiple-drug resistant NTS strains.

“…Poultry can serve as a reservoir for various foodborne pathogens. Numerous studies in recent years have demonstrated that Salmonella and Campylobacter species are the primary culprits behind human foodborne bacterial illnesses associated with poultry (Ifeanyichukwu et al, 2016). Foodborne infections and intoxications are responsible for approximately one billion cases of acute diarrhea every year among children under the age of five in regions such as Africa, Asia, Latin America, and other developing nations (Mulata et al, 2014).…”

With poultry being the most abundant domestic animals worldwide, poultry farms have emerged as a prospective and widely distributed business industry in Nigeria. The outbreak of several deadly diseases that cause economic loss and discourage poultry keeping is a major challenge to poultry farming. The main goal of this study is to isolate and identify different enteric bacteria and to find the antimicrobial sensitivity profile against the pathogens isolated from specific poultry farms in Kano State. A total of 50 samples, including both poultry feed and droppings, were collected from five different poultry farms for analysis to detect the presence of enteric bacteria. The results revealed that all bacterial isolates displayed varying levels of resistance to the tested antibiotics, but they were completely susceptible to Sulfamethoxazole and Cephalexin. In general, the results of this study indicate that these samples serve as sources of E. coli, Salmonella spp., Shigella spp., and Proteus mirabilis in poultry. These pathogenic bacteria pose a health threat, potentially leading to food poisoning and infections in both animals and humans. Consequently, efficient control measures such as proper management and handling of poultry birds, and sensitization of farmers on the abuse of antibiotics are crucial to prevent cross-contamination within poultry houses and ensure the provision of high quality poultry products.
