Salmonellosis in Food and Companion Animals and Its Public Health Importance

Abstract: Salmonellosis in animals is caused by typhoidal and non-typhoidal Salmonella organisms. Non-typhoidal salmonellosis is a zoonosis of major public health concern occasioning over 155, 000 mortalities yearly worldwide. The majority of the human infections are mainly acquired directly through consumption of contaminated foods of animal origin, particularly poultry, eggs and dairy products or consumption of contaminated fruits. Rodents and will birds are the main reservoirs of non-typhoidal salmonellosis. Salmonel… Show more

“…Non-typhoidal Salmonella primarily spreads through the feces of animals like poultry, cattle, pets, and reptiles. [26]. Only humans can become colonized by the bacteria Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi and Salmonella enterica serovar Paratyphi, which are spread through ingesting tainted food or water, coming into contact with someone with typhoid fever, or being exposed to chronic carriers.…”

“…Salmonellosis could be transmitted not only through the horizontal fecal-oral pathway but via vertically embrocated eggs as well. It is common for mature poultry to exhibit decreased egg production, fertility, and hatchability, as well as anorexia, diarrhea with white or yellow mucus, and watery mucosa [10]. Salmonellosis could be spread in poultry farms through infected sick chickens, contaminated equipment, water and feed, domestic animals, and the surrounding environment as well.…”
