Abstract

The present study was carried out to investigate the incidence of Campylobacter spp. from the chicken carcasses in slaughterhouse. A total of 9 strains were primarily isolated from enrichment culture and selective culture of the sample with candle and microaerophilic chamber method. Nine of Gram-negative, catalase-positive and oxidase-positive strains were further isolated by the determination of biochemical characteristics and finally identified as Campylobacter jejuni with HIP 400F and HIP l134R primers. Therefore, this PCR method proved to be useful as a routine diagnostic test for the Campylobacter detection and confirmation of C. jejuni and C. coli in naturally contaminated poultry samples.
