Prevalence, genetic diversity, and antibiotic resistance patterns of Campylobacter jejuni from retail raw chickens in Korea

Prevalence and Antimicrobial Resistance of Campylobacter jejuni

“…In the current study, all isolates were susceptible or moderately susceptible to erythromycin. Unlike some surveillances (20,23,(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34), we did not find macrolide-resistant strains.…”

Investigation of germ caused by Guillain-Barré syndrome in poultry meat products in North West of Iran

“…17 The outbreak of Campylobacter species in chicken meat in other countries also suggests a contamination level of 30 to 90 percent. The contamination levels in different countries were as follows: Turkey with 92/8%, 18 Korea with 68/3%, 11 Canada with 62/4%, 12 Japan with 60%, 6 Ireland with 49/90%, 13 and Pakistan with 48%. 14 Despite having many studies reporting the prevalence of Campylobacter species contamination in poultry, there are few studies highlighting on the edible offal contamination to the bacteria.…”

“…The prevalence of the infection in poultry given to the market have been reported to be 100% and lower incidences of other animals meat were also given. 5,6 Although there are many studies casting light on the prevalence of Campylobacter species among poultry in Iran, [7][8][9][10] and other countries including Korea, 11 Japan, 6 Canada, 12 Ireland, 13 Pakistan, 14 Belgium, 15 little data existed on the poultry meat biproducts infection including liver, gizzard and heart in Iran, therefore, the study aimed at evaluating the contamination of these products.…”

Prevalence, seasonality and antibiotic susceptibility of thermophilic Campylobacters in ceca and carcasses of poultry birds in the live-bird market

“…The rates of isolation of Campylobacter contamination are higher in countries with traditional "pluck shop" based wet markets: 63% in Iran (Taremi et al, 2006), 68.3% in Korea (Han et al, 2007) and 83.9% in Trinidad. Studies in Malaysia have shown the overall rate of contamination for Campylobacter in modern processing plants and in traditional wet markets were 61.1 and 85.6%, respectively (Rejab et al, 2012).…”
