Özet

The present study was conducted to determine the serotype distribution of Salmonella in broiler carcasses and edible offal belonged to different producers purchased from markets in Ankara A total of 70 Salmonella spp isolates were analyzed 71 isolates were recovered from broiler carcasses and 9 from edible offal (heart and liver) samples For the isolation of Salmonella spp from carcasses and edible offal of chicken samples conventional cultivation technique and immunomagnetic separation (IMS) based cultivation technique were used The isolates were verified by PCR, serotyped and then lysotyped Seventy Salmonella isolates were serotyped as followed, 44 isolates were S Enteritidis (63%), 16 isolates were S Subsp 1 (23%), 9 isolates were S Paratyphi B var Java (13%) and one isolate was S Typhimurium (1%) Our results revealed that broiler carcass and edible offal may be contaminated with various Salmonella serotypes and lysotypes S Enteritidis was the predominant serotype and grouped into five different lysotypes Most common lysotype was LT 4/6 in 26 (59%) isolates Also ten isolates (23%) were lysotyped as 1/1 Other detected lysotypes were 4a/n c, LT - 7/n c and 6/6 Continuous serotyping surveillance is important to obtain more information and develop effective strategies in poultry meat as an epidemiological aspect
