Abstract
<p>We investigated the prevalence of Campylobacter jejuni, Campylobacter coli, Salmonella, enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli, enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, Yersinia enterocolitica, and Escherichia albertii in domestic chicken and pork sold at retail stores in Saitama Prefecture, Japan. Campylobacter was detected in 35.7% (60/168) of chicken samples and 7.3% (14/190) of pork samples. C. jejuni and C. coli were predominant in chicken and pork, respectively. Salmonella was found in 58.1% (100/172) of chicken samples and 19.9% (41/206) of pork samples. Moreover, Salmonella Schwarzengrund was the major serovar observed in chicken isolates, whereas S. Typhimurium monophasic variant was in pork isolates. Furthermore, ETEC was found in 0.6% (1/160) of chicken samples and 2.4% (5/206) of pork samples. Y. enterocolitica was absent from all (83/83) chicken samples but was present in 9.3% (18/193) of pork samples, with a prevalence in pork tongues as high as 21.0% (13/62 samples). However, EHEC and E. albertii were not detected in our study. Therefore, the results of this study indicate that chicken was highly contaminated with Campylobacter sp. and Salmonella, and pork was with Y. enterocolitica serotype O3, Campylobacter sp., Salmonella, and ETEC.</p>
