“…Campylobacter infection is a self-limiting disease and treatment with antimicrobials is not indicated in the majority of the cases; however, under specific clinical circumstances, antimicrobial therapy may be necessary. In these specific cases, the therapy may be complicated due to the emergence of multidrug resistant (MDR) campylobacter strains as a result of the wide uncontrolled usage of antimicrobials in agriculture and veterinary medicine [ 3 ].…”

Campylobacter jejuni is the leading cause of foodborne bacterial gastroenteritis in humans worldwide. Contaminated chickens and their products are the main sources of human campylobacteriosis. Therefore, this study aimed to detect the genotypic and virulence genes‘ profiles of multi-drug resistant (MDR) C. jejuni isolates and to assess the effects of sub-inhibitory concentrations (SICs) of eugenol and beta-resorcylic acid on the virulence of avian MDR C. jejuni isolates. These isolates were clustered together with the human isolates via enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus-PCR (ERIC-PCR) fingerprinting. A total of 345 samples were collected from human stool (100) and different chicken (245) samples in Sharkia Governorate, Egypt. Conventional phenotypic methods identified 113 isolates (32.8%) as C. jejuni, and all C. jejuni isolates were MDR and resistant to erythromycin and ampicillin. The genes virB11, wlaN, and flaA were detected in 52%, 36% and 100% strains, respectively. ERIC-PCR yielded 14 profiles and five main clusters. Interestingly, human and chicken C. jejuni isolates were clustered together in ERIC-PCR clusters II-V, which confirmed the genetic relatedness between the isolates from both origins. Beta-resorcylic acid and eugenol inhibited the invasion of C. jejuni isolates to chicken intestinal cells by 41.66–38.19% and 31.94–29.16%, respectively, and minimized the transcription of flaA, virB11, and wlaN genes in the tested isolates by real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR). In essence, eugenol and beta-resorcylic acid are promising natural antimicrobials for minimizing the virulence of MDR C. jejuni in chickens, thereby managing human campylobacteriosis.

“…(Sebald andVeron, 1963 andSilva et al 2011). The genus's name means bended/ curved which derived from the Greek expression "kampyo's" (Keener et al 2004 andSilva et al 2018a). The first proper description of the genus Campylobacter was given by the American bacteriologist Elisabeth King, which was committed to find the proper techniques to isolate these bacteria from faeces because she believed that the prevalence of Campylobacter was more than the few reported cases (Butzler,…”

“…The motility of the genus Campylobacter is distinctively fast and darting in corkscrew appearance when seen by phasecontrast microscopy because of the existence of solitary unsheathed polar flagella at one or both ends of the bacterial cell. Among every single known spp., C. gracilis is the only nonmotile spp., while C. showae shows up as straight bacilli due to the appearance of numerous flagella (Goni et al 2017 andSilva et al 2018a). Campylobacter spp.…”

“…This finding suggests that Campylobacter spp. are survived better in vivo than in vitro (Silva et al 2018a). Some C. jejuni can survive under extreme environmental and aerobic conditions due to biofilm production, which facilitate its spread in the environment of food production and antimicrobial resistance (Platts-mills and Kosek, 2014 and Silva et al 2018b).…”

“…Campylobacteriosis is a self-limited disease and antimicrobial treatment is not indicated for the most part. Notwithstanding, under explicit clinical conditions, anti-microbial treatment might be fundamental, but treatment might be convoluted because the development of antimicrobial resistant Campylobacter strains as a result of the common utilization of antimicrobial agents in agriculture and veterinary medicine (Bhunia, 2018 andSilva et al 2018a). For the consumer's safety, it is important to characterize the pathogenicity markers in strains that are recognized in food.…”

2004 and García-Sánchez et al. 2018). In the early 1970s, a special filtration method was developed for identification of Campylobacter in veterinary medicine, which allowed Butzler to detect these Campylobacter, mainly Campylobacter jejuni is viewed as one of the most well-known reasons of foodborne bacterial diarrheal sickness in people around the globe. The genus Campylobacter contains 39 species (spp.) and 16 sub spp. Campylobacter is microaerophilic, Gram negative, spiral-shaped rod with characteristic cork screw motility. It is colonizing the digestive system of numerous wild and household animals and birds, particularly chickens. Intestinal colonization brings about transporter/carrier healthy animals. Consequently, the utilization of contaminated meat, especially chicken meat is the primary source of campylobacteriosis in humans and chickens are responsible for an expected 80% of human campylobacter infection. Interestingly, in contrast with the most recent published reviews that cover specific aspects of campylobacter/campylobacteriosis, this review targets the taxonomy, biological characteristics, identification and habitat of Campylobacter spp. Moreover, it discusses the pathogenesis, resistance to antimicrobial agents and public health significance of Campylobacter spp. Finally, it focuses on the phytochemicals as intervention strategies used to reduce Campylobacter spp.in poultry production.
