background: the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of virulence-associated genes and enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus pcr (eric-pcr) analysis of campylobacter spp. isolated from children with diarrhea in iran. methods: a total of 200 stool specimens were obtained from children under 5 years during july 2012 to july 2013. detection of c. jejuni and c. coli was perfo...

background: campylobacter jejune and c. coli are recognized as the most common bacteriological causes of gastroenteritis in humans. in this study identification of campylobacter jejuni and campylobacter coli from samples using pcr was explored. methods: detection was performed using diarrheal samples collected 8 from 117 children. the genomic dna of samples was extracted by phenol-chloroform me...

conclusions campylobacter is responsible for some important clinical problems such as enteritis and is also associated with meningitis and hemolytic-uremic syndrome. it is imperative to monitor the prevalence and antibiotic resistance of campylobacter spp. as well as other the zoonotic bacteria. results twelve (10%) campylobacter spp. from 120 stool samples were isolated including c. coli and c...

The genus Campylobacter  is of great importance to public health because it includes several species that may cause diarrhoea. Poultry and poultry products are known as important sources of human campylobacteriosis. In this study, during the autumn months of 2005, a total of 100 samples from poultry carcasses, representing 20 broiler flocks were obtained by rinse test, after the chilling stage ...

this study was carried out to determine the prevalence of foodborne pathogens, escherichia coli, e. coli o157:h7, listeria monocytogenes and campylobacter spp. on slaughtered cattle in isfahan, iran. a total of 203 cattle carcasses were sampled by surface section of neck meat taken immediately after slaughter and analyzed using microbiological examinations. suspected colonies to e. coli o157:h7...

results all 90 campylobacter isolates confirmed by m-pcr were successfully typed using flaa-pcr-rflp. eleven different types were defined according to flaa-typing method and the rflp patterns were located at three separate clusters in rflp image analysis dendrogram. conclusions campylobacter jejuni isolates significantly showed more variety than c. coli isolates. a relatively low genetic divers...

The objectives of this study were to determine the prevalence of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli in retail beef, beef livers, and pork meats purchased from the Tulsa (OK, USA) area and to further characterize the isolates obtained through antimicrobial susceptibility testing. A total of 97 chilled retail beef (50 beef livers and 47 other cuts), and 100 pork samples were collected. T...

The aim of this research was to study the occurrence of Vibrio spp., Aeromonas hydrophila, Escherichia coli and Campylobacter spp. in crayfish from Azerbaijan Province using culture method and PCR assay. A total of 55 isolates were collected from 97 studied samples. Vibrio spp., A. hydrophila, E. coli and Campylobacter spp. were detected in 26 samples (26.8%), 12 samples (12.3%), 15 samples (15...
