Campylobacter is an important foodborne pathogen as it associated with significant disease burden across Europe. Among various sources, infections in humans are often related to the consumption of undercooked poultry meat or improper handling meat. Many European countries have implemented measures reduce human exposure from broiler In this paper, surveillance programs some summarized. Our findings reveal that many test neck skin samples for per Process Hygiene Criteria (PHC) set by...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance two ELISA tests applied bulk tank milk (BTM) as first part a two-step test scheme for surveillance caprine arthritis encephalitis (CAE) and caseous lymphadenitis (CLA) infections in goats. herd-level BTM were assessed by comparing them results individual serological samples. potential refining cut-off levels used tools population recently cleared infection also investigated. Data gathered on serum (nCAE =9702 nCLA=13426)...
For the past years, Salmonella has been one of major foodborne pathogens in Europe, leading to development several control efforts reduce its impact on human health. Poultry meat consistently implicated cases salmonellosis. One strategies lessen burden salmonellosis humans was implementation national programs (NCPs) for broilers and turkeys aiming reductions these animal populations. In this paper, a description comparison surveillance that are currently implemented broiler turkey chains...
Abstract Background Preventing pathogens from entering the broiler premises is main biosecurity measure at farm level. In conventional production, chickens are kept indoors during entire production period. Pathogens can enter broiler-producing unit sources such as water, equipment, personnel, insects, and rodents. The possible routes must be controlled, corrective measures applied when necessary. objective of this study was to (1) develop a hygiene protocol test scheme on 30 farms, (2)...
Campylobacter continues to be the number one cause of bacterial gastroenteritis in Europe. Poultry, and especially broiler chickens, is considered an important reservoir for spp. Poultry producers prioritize identify reduce contaminated chicken flocks by tightening biosecurity mitigation actions at slaughter. Campylobacter-positive must therefore identified as close slaughter possible, rapid detection methods are needed. Here we evaluated applicability, sensitivity, specificity four...
With heritable PSE (hal+) being largely eradicated in many countries, pork quality defects and their linkage to known mutations have received less attention the last decade. We address this by mapping frequency of four (200Q, 199 V, hal+, PHKG1) heterogenous Norwegian German pig populations (n = 136/61). Genotyping for was done PCR-RFLP analyses Illumina chip genotyping. found a high prevalence pigs with at least one tested samples (60%, 77%). For samples, we confirm links 200Q PHKG1...
