Abstract
A total of 150 random samples of poultry meat and its products include chicken carcasses, luncheon, nuggets; fillets and frankfurter (30 of each) were collected from different groceries and supermarkets in different localities at Alexandria province. All samples were examined bacteriologically for human bacterial pathogens.
1-Results revealed that the Incidence of Salmonella isolated from examined chicken meat, chicken luncheon, chicken nuggets, chicken fillets and chicken frankfurter, were 50%، 7%, 10%, 20%, and 7%, respectively.
2-Serotyping of isolated Salmonella indicated that:
a) Sal.Enteritidis was 20%, 3%, 10% in chicken meat, chicken nuggets and chicken fillets, respectively.
b) Sal.Typhimurium was 27%, 7%, 7%, 10% and 7% in chicken carcasses, chicken luncheon, chicken nuggets, chicken fillets and frankfurter, respectively.
c) While Sal. Haifa only was found in chicken meat with an incidence 3%.
3-Results revealed that the incidence of E.coli isolated from examined chicken meat, chicken luncheon, chicken nuggets, chicken fillets and chicken frankfurter, was 57%, 10%, 13%, 23% and 10%, respectively.
4- Serotyping of isolated E.coli indicated that:
a) O26:K60 (B6) (10%, 3 %) were serologically identified from examined samples of Chicken meat, and chicken fillets, respectively.
b) O86:K61 (B7) (10%, 7%, 7%, 7% and 3%) were serologically identified from examined samples of Chicken meat, chicken luncheon, chicken nuggets, chicken fillets and chicken frankfurter, respectively.
c) O111:K58 (B9) (3%, 3 %) were serologically identified from examined samples of chicken meat, and chicken fillets, respectively.
d) O124:K72 (B17) (20%, 3%, 3%, 10% and 7%) were serologically identified from examined samples of chicken meat, chicken luncheon, chicken nuggets, chicken fillets and chicken frankfurter, respectively.
e) O128:K67 (B12) (13% and 3%) were serologically identified from examined samples of chicken meat and chicken nuggets, respectively.
5-Results revealed that the incidence of Campylobacter Jejuni isolated only in chicken meat and chicken fillets were 67% and 17%, respectively.
6-Results revealed that the incidence of Bacillus cereus isolated from examined Chicken meat, chicken luncheon, chicken nuggets and chicken frankfurter was 57%, 37%, 7% and 10% respectively.
7-Results revealed that the incidence of Aeromonas hydrophila only isolated from examined chicken meat chicken fillets was 27%and 7% ,respectively.
8-Results revealed that the incidence of Yersinia enterocolitica only isolated from examined Chicken meat chicken fillets was 37%and 10%, respectively.
from these results it is obvious that to take microbiological examination as well as suggestions for improving the quality of the chicken meat and its products as well as to safe guard the health of consumers.
