Researchers from the University of Minnesota found evidence of S. Typhimurium vaccine origins persisting in commercial poultry production through processing and developed a tool to rapidly determine if a field isolate is of vaccine origin and not a concern to human health.
Traditional methods to detect Salmonella in poultry and trace outbreaks often fail to give the full picture of the threat in enough time for integrators to act. This lack of oversight limits the effectiveness of intervention strategies designed to mitigate Salmonella transmission.
Controlling foodborne pathogens in poultry requires nearly identical approaches whether production is conventional or antibiotic-free, according to Chuck Hofacre, DVM, PhD, president of the Southern Poultry Research Group, Inc.
Novel disinfection strategies — electrostatic disinfection (ED) and cold fog (CF) disinfection — could help improve hatchability, reduce chronic respiratory disease (CRD) incidence and improve overall health outcomes for poultry, according to a recent Poultry Science report.
Conventional diagnostic methods for detecting Salmonella in live poultry production typically rely on analyzing isolated bacterial colonies from enriched samples. Recent evidence, however, suggests these methods can overlook the presence of certain strains and serotypes.
A risk-assessment model for Salmonella demonstrates the potential public health benefit of focusing on chicken parts that are heavily contaminated with highly virulent serotypes of this bacteria instead of focusing on low-virulent serotype.
Ancera has released a new suite of comprehensive monitoring tools to provide allied companies of the poultry industry with real-time, third-party evidence demonstrating product efficacy.
The ability to process birds on farms and eliminate live transport offers some compelling benefits to the poultry industry whose customers are increasingly disconnected from animal agriculture.
Tightened-up feed-processing practices along with new hygienic feed options can help reduce salmonellosis outbreaks linked to poultry products, according to Tim Boltz, PhD, assistant professor of poultry nutrition and feed hygienics, Mississippi State University.
Years of painstaking research to discover how Salmonella metabolically survive is yielding unusual insights into these resourceful bacteria.
Campylobacter jejuni is a leading cause of bacterial-derived gastroenteritis in the US, due to its ability to asymptomatically reside within the intestinal tracts of poultry.
Chicken makes quite the journey to the consumer’s table and NCC’s 360° Virtual Experience offers a behind-the-scenes look at every step of a broiler chicken’s life.
