Description
Summary:Salmonellae are resourceful and adaptive organisms that infect a broad range of diverse hosts. Serovars of the genuswere first isolated in a poultry mash in 1948, thus establishing a need to assess the pertinence of Salmonella organisms inanimal protein feed ingredients. A random sampling scheme was established to evaluate the Salmonella population levelby three-tube most probable numbers (MPN) analysis and serovar identity over a period of one year. The results provideevidence of the limited relatedness of animal protein meals in the complex cycle of feed contamination and likelysubsequent transmission of disease to animals or humans through the feed chain.
