Abstract

Over 95 % of the cases of human salmonellosis are foodborne. Among the foods involved in transmission of these diseases are the products from animal origin, being the poultry products highly relevant. To deal with this issue, the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestocks Farming and Supply (MAPA – Ministério da Agricultura, Pecuária e Abastecimento) established a program, in order to monitor the contamination by Salmonella spp. in poultry carcasses. This study aimed at comparing the efficiency of two analytical methodologies (rinsing of chicken carcass and skin excision) for recovering the cells from this bacterium and to verify the occurrence of this pathogen in samples collected in Botucatu, SP. Analyzing 100 carcasses, and computing the results by both techniques, contamination by Salmonella spp. was detected in 43% samples. Using the rinsing technique, 81.40% (35/43) showed positive results as well as 51.16% (22/43) using the skin excision methodology. Although the rinsing technique detected high number of positive samples, no statistical difference (p > 0.05) was found between the results obtained from two methodologies. Further studies should be conducted on this issue as the poultry carcasses are crucial source for transmission of Salmonella spp., and the subsequent introduction of this pathogen on food preparation environment.
