Abstract

A total of 50 poultry meat products samples were collected from shops and supermarkets in Aswan province; 10 samples chicken luncheon; 10 samples chicken burger; 10 samples smoked turkey; 10 samples livers & gizzard and 10 samples sheeshtawook. Samples were investigated for the presence of salmonella by using bacteriological and biochemical tests. It was observed that 10% (1/10) of livers & gizzard and 20% (2/10) of sheeshtawook; 0 % (0/10) of chicken luncheon; 0 % (0/10) of chicken burger; 0 % (0/10) of smoked turkey were positive for salmonella. Salmonella contamination was found in livers & gizzard and in sheeshtawook while chicken luncheon, chicken burger and smoked turkey were free from salmonella. Some poultry meat products especially products which consists of raw meat material such as livers & gizzards or products which not subjected to sufficient cooking considered an important source for salmonella infection. Poultry meat products manufactured in food factories apply good hygiene practices are free from salmonella contamination. Strategies to reduce salmonella levels on raw poultry should be undertaken to improve the safety of poultry products and reduce the incidence of human salmonellosis from poultry consumption.
