Genotypic and antibiotic susceptibility characteristics of a Campylobacter coli population isolated from dairy farmland in the United Kingdom

Article Abstract:

Campylobacter infections are known to be the most common cause of bacterial infections in humans and Campylobacter spp. is the most common cause of acute bacterial enteritis in the United Kingdom with nearly ten percent caused by Campylobacter coli. Preliminary findings suggest that a particular strain of C. coli has developed survival qualities in water making it a cause for concern.

Changes in the carriage of Campylobacter strains by poultry carcasses during processing in abattoirs

Article Abstract:

Some strains of Campylobacter can survive in poultry processing plants despite decontamination procedures and can even contaminate the crates used to transport birds. This was demonstrated by researchers who used fla typing to identify Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli.

Evidence for a genetically stable strain of Campylobacter jejuni

Article Abstract:

Some strains of Campylobacter jejuni have remained genetically stable for almost 20 years, according to researchers who compared a laboratory strain from a human outbreak in 1981 to strains isolated from chicken outbreaks in 1998.
