“…This variation might be due to the differences in the hygienic and sanitary practices in the butcher shops especially poor hand washing practices. Studies conducted in Malaysia [7], Ghana [33] and Jimma [34] showed the prevalence of salmonella species to be 10%, 30%, and 11.3% respectively which were higher than the current study. This difference might be due to hygiene and sanitation practice, methodology differences in sample collection and processing procedure.…”

Background Food-borne diseases related to the consumption of meat and its products had public health importance worldwide. The problem became worst in Ethiopia as the result of the tradition of eating raw cattle meat. Salmonella species and Escherichia coli are important food-borne pathogens associated with meat contamination. Hence the current study aimed to assess the prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility of Salmonella species and Extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing Escherichia coli from raw cattle meat at butcher houses in Hawassa city, Sidama regional state, Ethiopia. Method A cross-sectional study was done on the prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of Salmonella species and Extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing E.coli from raw cattle meat at butcher houses in Hawassa city from September to December 2020. Socio-demographic data were collected using a structured questionnaire and raw cattle meat and swab samples were collected from meat cutting equipment. The collected samples transported using icebox to Hawassa University College of Medicine and Health Sciences Microbiology Laboratory for identification. Samples were grown on different culture media and antimicrobial susceptibility tests were determined by using Kirby disc diffusion method. Data were entered and analyzed into SPSS version 23. Descriptive statistics were done and P-value < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Result The overall prevalence of salmonella and ESBL producing E.coli among 556 samples collected from 278 butcher houses was 36 (6.47%) (95% CI: 1.68–1.79) of which 13 (2.3%) were ESBL producing E.coli and 23(4.1%) were salmonella species. Poor hand washing practice (AOR = 2.208; 95% CI: 1.249–3.904) and touching birr while selling meat (AOR = 0.75; 95% CI: (0.433–1.299) were found to be significantly associated with the prevalence of salmonella species and E.coli on cattle meat. The isolates showed moderate levels of resistance (60–70%) against Amoxicillin/ clavulanic acid and high susceptibility (85–100%) against gentamicin, cotrimoxazole, ceftazidime, and tetracycline and the overall multidrug resistance was 33.3%. Conclusion This study revealed moderately high prevalence of salmonella and E.coli due to poor hygiene and sanitation practices in the butcher shops. Furthermore, the existence of ESBL producing E.coli isolates clearly indicate the possible threat to public health. Therefore, inspection by the right agencies must be implemented in order to prevent food-borne outbreaks and antimicrobial resistance.

“…An intermediate resistance of 2(18.2%) was also found for Ampicillin. On the other hand, Interestingly all of the isolates were 100% susceptible to gentamycine,cipro oxacin,tetracycline and ceftraxione.This is in line with the study conducted in Ghana (66).In addition 7(63.6%) and 9(81.8%) exhibited susceptibility to Tetracycline and Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole respectively. This result is also in aligning with study done in Gondar, Ethiopia.…”

“…A study conducted in Mexico, Latin America on the prevalence and antibiotic susceptibility pattern of Salmonella on raw meat showed high levels of resistance to ampicillin (66.7% of isolates), tetracycline (61.3%), and chloramphenicol (64.5%) and low levels of resistance to cefotaxime (0%), gentamicin (3.2%), and kanamycin (4.3%) (26). A study conducted in the Wa Municipality of Ghana on Prevalence of Salmonella species isolated from raw meat and liver of cattle highly resistant to teicoplanin (96.77%) but susceptible to chloramphenicol (100%), cipro oxacin (100%), tetracycline (100%), suphamethoxazole/ trimethoprim (100%), amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (93.55%), ceftriaxone (93.55%) and gentamicin (83.87%) (66).Another study in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia shows about 25% of Salmonella species were found resistant to ampicillin. Besides, 9% of Salmonella species and 2% of E. coli O157:H7 isolates were found to be resistant to ceftriaxone (15).…”

BackgroundFoodborne diseases continue to be an important public health problem globally and most of the food safety hazards are caused by foods of animal sources. It is also reported that contaminated raw meat has been identified as one of the main sources of foodborne illnesses. In Ethiopia, the widespread habit of raw meat consumption, lack of compliance with standard quality and sanitation protocols is a potential cause for foodborne illnesses. The purpose of this study was to assess bacteriological quality, antibiotic susceptibility pattern of bacterial isolation of raw meat and associated factors among butcher houses of Adama town, Ethiopia, 2019. ResultsThree-fourth (¾th) of collected raw meat was unacceptable bacterial load of Total Aerobic Plate count based on Gulf Standard. The average contamination was (5.89±0.86) log Colony Forming Unit per gram for total aerobic plate count. Raw meat collected from meat handlers who trained on meat hygiene (AOR=5.8, 95%CI:(1.99-17.34), collecting money (AOR= 0.14,95%CI (0.04-0.43) were associated with bacteriological quality of raw meat. Whereas, proportion of meat samples that were positive for Salmonella and shigella were (9.8% and 2.67%) respectively. The resistance of Salmonella was most frequently observed to Ampicillin (100%), Amoxicillin/ Clavunilic (54.5%), Tetracycline (36.3%) Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (18.2%). Shigella expressed resistance to Ampicillin (50%) and 100% sensitive to the rest antibiotics used.ConclusionBacterial logarithmic mean values were beyond the acceptable standard indication of poor hygiene, making it a potential source of food-borne infection. Therefore, stringent inspection, regular supervision, training and hygienic practices should be introduced to enhance hygienic quality meat for consumers.

“…The prevalence of Salmonella in beef samples in our research study is higher as compared to previous research studies [33][34][35][36]. However, some research studies have reported more than 60% prevalence in beef samples [37][38][39][40]. The Salmonella prevalence in beef is much lower in developed countries like USA due to strict control measures.…”

The aim of the present study was to estimate the prevalence of Salmonella and investigate the dominant serovars distribution in raw beef and to screen the isolated serovars for the prescense of beta-lactamases and virulence genes. A total of 150 samples of raw beef sold at butcher shops (n = 75) and supermarkets (n = 75) in Karachi city were collected (50 samples each from muscles, lymph nodes, and minced beef). The samples were cultured according to the ISO-6579-1guidlines. The overall prevalence of Salmonella strains was found to be 21.34%. A total of 56 isolates of Salmonella belonging to four serogroups (Salmonella Pullorum, Salmonella Enteritidis, Salmonella Typhimurium and Salmonella Choleraesuis) were isolated from beef muscles (12%), lymph nodes (24%) and minced beef (28%) samples collected from butcher shops (av. 21.34%). No Salmonella was detected in beef samples collected from supermarkets. S. Enteritidis contamination was highest (37.5%), followed by S. Choleraesuis (30.4%), S. Pullorum (19.6%) and S. Typhimurium (12.5 %). Antibiotic susceptibility testing revealed that Salmonella isolates were highly resistant to Oxytetracycline (90%), Ampicillin (90.5%), Amoxicillin (81.1%), Tetracycline (76%), Neomycin, (79.8%) and Ciprofloxacin (61.4%). The Salmonella isolates examined were more susceptible to the Cephalosporin antibiotics such as Cefixime (43.2%), Cefepime (48.2) and Cefoxitin (49.8%). PCR based screening of blaTEM, blaCTX-M and blaSHV revealed that blaCTX-M and blaTEM were the dominant resistant genes in S. Enteritidis and S. Typhimurium followed by S. Pullorum and S. Choleraesuis whereas blaSHV was the least detected beta-lactamase in Salmonella isolates. Virulence genes screening revealed that at least five genes were present in all the serovars, highest being present in S. Enteritidis (12/17) and S. Typhimurium (12/17). S. Cholerasuis (5/17) carried the least number of virulence genes followed by S. Pullorum (6/17). The present data suggest that beef samples from butcher shops of Karachi city are heavily contaminated with MDR Salmonella. The presence of resistance and virulence genes in MDR strains of Salmonella may play a significant role in transmission and development of Salmonella infection in humans.
