“…PFGE is commonly used to differentiate isolates from different reservoirs such as humans, animals, environmental samples and transmission of these bacteria (Ahmed et al, 2012;Taboada et al, 2013). This molecular analysis has shown that C. jejuni and C. coli are genetically diverse and investigations of several Campylobacter collections usually demonstrated high strain variability regardless of genotyping methods used (Abay et al, 2014;Damjanova et al, 2011;Di Giannatale et al, 2014;Lazou et al, 2014;Ma et al, 2014;Magnusson et al, 2011;Melero et al, 2012;Thakur et al, 2013).…”

“…Salmonellosis has been associated with consumption of raw or improperly cooked goat meat in Japan (Kadaka et al, 2000). Similarly, Campylobacter recovery from goat carcases has been widely reported in Ethiopian, Ghanaian and Grecian abattoirs (Woldemariam et al, 2009;Lazou et al, 2014;Karikari et al, 2017), raw retail goat meats respectively in Ethiopia and Iran (Dadi and Asrat, 2008;Rahimi et al, 2010), and goat meat has been reported to act as major source of human and environmental contamination by Campylobacter spp. in Congo (a Mpalang et al, 2014).…”

Western Australian rangeland goats were surveyed for faecal carriage of Salmonella enterica and Campylobacter spp. Faecal samples were collected from 125 goats on four occasions. The first sample was collected immediately upon arrival at a commercial goat depot (feedlot). Subsequent samples were collected at one month intervals thereafter. Frequency of detection and faecal carriage intensity were determined using qPCR targeting the S. enterica outer membrane protein (ompF) and Campylobacter spp. purine biosynthesis gene (purA). Salmonella enterica were identified in 40/500 of faecal samples, with S. enterica faecal carriage detected in 30% (38/125) goats over the duration of the study. Campylobacter spp. were identified in 12/500 of samples, with Campylobacter spp. detected in 10% (12/125) goats over duration of the study. Frequency of detection was highest at the first sample collection for both S. enterica (26%) and Campylobacter spp. (8%). Repeat detection of Salmonella was observed for only a single goat (0.8%). Salmonella qPCR positive samples were characterised at ompF and invA genes as S. enterica. Further 3 characterisation at STM2755 and STM4497 genes confirmed the isolates were S. enterica serovar Typhimurium. Characterization at the 16S rRNA and hippuricase (hipO) genes revealed all Campylobacter spp. positive samples were C. jejuni. This study demonstrates that qPCR can be used for rapid identification of faecal carriage in goat faecal samples and showed evidence of carriage of zoonotic S. Typhimurium and C. jejuni by captured rangeland goats. The findings have implications for management of goats at abattoirs and in confined feeding facilities.

“…In a study carried out with sheep and goat liver surface swabs (Lazou et al 2014a) it was reported that 44 (44%) of 100 samples were isolated with Campylobacter spp. In another study (Lazou et al 2014b) by the same researchers they reported that 78,2% of the liver surfaces collected from lambs, sheep, goats and kids slaughtered in slaughterhouses had been determined as contaminated with Campylobacter agents. Campylobacter spp.…”

The presence of Campylobacter spp. obtained from clinically healthy 50 sheep, goats and cattle slaughtered in slaughterhouses in Afyonkarahisar and Kutahya provinces and 44 aborted ovine fetuses obtained from the same region was investigated in this study. The subtypes were isolated by culture methods and identified by API Campy (Biomerieux, France) test kits. Campylobacter spp. was isolated from 7 samples (15.91%) out of 44 aborted ovine fetuses. After identification of Campylobacter spp., it was determined that 5 samples (71.43%) out of 7 were C. fetus subsp. fetus (71.43%) and 2 samples were C. jejuni (28.57%). Out of the 50 liver samples, Campylobacter spp. was isolated from 3 ovine livers (6%) and 1 goat liver (2%). Three of the isolates were identified as C. jejuni (75%) and 1 isolate as C. coli (25%). Campylobacter spp. was not isolated from cattle livers. Resistance rates for ciprofloxacin and tetracycline were 45.5% and 27.3% for erythromycin and 9.1% for ampicillin. No resistance was determined against gentamycin, chloramphenicol and streptomycin. The rate of susceptibility to antibiotics used was 72.7% for ampicillin, 54.5% for erythromycin, 90.9% for gentamycin, 100% for chloramphenicol, 72.7% for streptomycin and 27.3 % for ciprofloxacin and tetracycline.
