Prevalence and Subtype Characterization of Campylobacter in Ceca of Commercial Broiler Chickens at Processing - A 452 Flock, Seven-year Survey.

Human Campylobacter infections have been associated with chicken and other poultry meat products. Environmental conditions such as temperature and season can affect Campylobacter recoverability from chicken meat products. In the presented study, we sought to investigate the relationship between ambient weather conditions and the isolation of Campylobacter from chicken flocks, as well as the subtype of these isolates.
