UNLABELLED A study was undertaken to investigate and model behavior of Salmonella on chicken meat during cold storage at constant temperatures. Chicken meat (white, dark, or skin) portions (0.75 cm(3)) were inoculated with a single strain of Salmonella Typhimurium DT104 (2.8 log) followed by storage for 0 to 8 d at -8, 0, 8, 12, 14, or 16 °C for model development and at -4, 4, 10, or 14 °C for ...

S. typhimurium S. enteritidis S. Kentucky chicken meat MultiplexPCR The present study was conducted for identification of molecular characterization of Salmonella enterica isolated from chicken meat by using multiplex-PCR isolated from 200 samples of fresh chicken meat and 100 samples of ready to eat chicken meat. Samples were assessed by performing the pre-enrichment and enrichment culture, bi...

Meat spoilage during low temperature can be considered as an ecological phenomenon, which encompasses the changes of the available substrata, during the prevailing of a particular microbial association of specific spoilage organisms. In fact, spoilage of meat (Chicken, Mutton and Beef) depends on a temperature and duration of storage time. These specific spoilage organisms are the consequence o...

This study aims to determine the antibiotic resistance phenotypes of Salmonella isolates of broiler meat and chicken samples against a total of 23 antimicrobial agents. For this, 64 meat and 79 chicken Salmonella isolates, which were obtained from retail meat and farm samples analyzed in our laboratory from February 2006 to January 2009, were used. All Salmonella isolates were resistant to at l...

To determine the optimum meat mixture combination, the effects of different meat sources on physical, chemical, and sensory properties of cooked or stored meat patties were investigated using a response surface methodology mixture design. Meat patties were prepared using chicken, turkey, beef, and beef back fat. They were divided 2 groups, with 1 group cooked and 1 group stored. The first part ...

The 1,007,172-bp complete genome of Mycoplasma pullorum strain B359_6, isolated from domestic chickens, has been sequenced, assembled, and annotated.

BACKGROUND Despite of the advances in infectious diseases prevention and food technology, food-borne diseases are considered major problems in developed and developing countries. Meat plays a key role in transferring zoonotic diseases to human. OBJECTIVES This study was conducted in south of Tehran, Iran, to investigate the prevalence rate of Salmonella spp. in packed and unpacked red meat an...

The concentrations of iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), nickel (Ni), manganese (Mn), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb) and chromium (Cr) in chicken meat, chicken gizzard and turkey meat consumed in southern Nigeria were determined after nitric acid/perchloric acid digestion using graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The order of the elements in the chicken meat, chicken gizzard and turk...
