“…Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. have been isolated from sick and healthy people and from a variety of meat and meats products (Li et al, 2004;Adzitey et al, 2010Adzitey et al, , 2012aAdzitey et al, , b, 2014Zhao et al, 2001;Salihu et al, 2012;Adimasu et al, 2014;Carnot et al, 2014;Geck et al, 2014;Gunasekaran et al, 2014;Olowokere et al, 2014). In the USA, Mead et al (1999) reported that nontyphoidal Salmonella serovars caused about 1.4 million cases of human illnesses while, pathogenic Escherichia coli, caused 270,000 cases of human illness.…”

This work reports for the first on the prevalence of Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. in beef sold in the Tamale Metropolis. The conventional method was used to isolate Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. from beef samples sold at the Tamale Metropolis. Seventy beef samples were obtained from seven different locations where meat is popularly sold in the Tamale Metropolis and analyzed microbiologically for Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. by following procedures in the Bacteriological Analytical Manuel of the FDA-USA. The average prevalence of Escherichia coli was 56% and was highest in Location G (100%), followed by Location C (80%), Locations D and F (60%), Location B (50%) and Location E (40%). Escherichia coli was not isolated from Location A. The overall prevalence of Salmonella spp. in the beef samples was 31%. The location with the highest prevalence of Salmonella spp. was Location F (90%), followed by Location D (50%), Location E (30%) and Location C (20%). Locations A, B and G exhibited a prevalence of 10%. Locations with better hygienic standards exhibited low prevalence of Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. The study indicated that beef samples sold in the Tamale Metropolis were contaminated by Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. Thus, consumers are exposed to Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. infections from consuming beef samples in Tamale.

Background Food borne diseases caused by non-Typhoidal Salmonella spp remains critical public health threat globally. Human Salmonellosis resulted in millions of deaths worldwide where developing countries such as Ethiopia are mostly affected. Nowadays, globally Salmonella spp isolated from human stools and animal origin foods exhibited wider antimicrobial resistance; in addition, multi-drug resistant salmonella strains have been reported from Sub-Saharan Africa. Therefore; the overall aim of this review is to qualitative summarize the available data of Salmonella spp from Human stool and animal origin foods in Ethiopia. Method systematical search of relevant literatures from three databases (PubMed, Google scholar and Science Direct) was carried out with regard of specific date of publications (2010–2021) in order to summarize the prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of Salmonella spp from human stool and animal origin foods in Ethiopia. Result 52 Research articles have fulfilled in the inclusion criteria of this systematic review and got included. 37 of them had been selected for prevalence of Salmonella spp whereas 15 of them had been chosen for antimicrobial susceptibility pattern. Most of the articles reported higher prevalence of salmonella isolates together with increased drug resistance. The prevalence of salmonella spp in articles targeting food handlers ranged from 1.2–9.04%. Articles focusing on children and U-5 children had a prevalence of salmonella spp ranging from 0.9–12.6%. Studies involving animal-related foods like Milk, Meat, and eggs reported a highest prevalence of 20% for salmonella species, followed by 16.4%. Conclusion and Recommendation after qualitative summarizing of the included articles, Salmonella spp shows higher prevalence (specifically among U-5 children followed by outpatients) and higher antibiotic resistance (particularly against Ampicillin followed by tetracycline) in Ethiopia. Therefore, early and accurate laboratory diagnosis with antimicrobial susceptibility pattern, hygienic practices improvement and appropriate use of antibiotics are highly recommended.
