Analysis of Campylobacter spp. contamination and drug resistance in poultry sold in Jiading District, Shanghai from 2019 to 2021

Journal Title: Shanghai Journal of Preventive Medicine - Year 2023, Vol 35, Issue 2

Abstract

ObjectiveTo investigate the contamination status and drug resistance of Campylobacter spp. in poultry sold in Jiading District, Shanghai.MethodsFour types of poultry meats (chickens, ducks, geese and pigeons) were sampled from commercial markets, and potential Campylobacter spp. contamination was isolated and identified. Furthermore, resistance of isolated Campylobacter spp. to 15 commonly used antibiotics was tested.ResultsTotally 29 Campylobacter jejuni strains and 34 Campylobacter. coli were isolated from 236 commercial poultry samples. The most severe contamination of Campylobacter spp. was found in chicken samples, with a detection rate of 34.04%, while the lowest detection rate of Campylobacter spp. was found in duck (19.67%). Contamination status was categorized with different storage conditions. The lowest detection rate of 6.67% was noted under frozen condition, while highest detection rate of 41.27% was noted under cold storage. Campylobacter jejuni was completely resistant to cefazolin, ciprofloxacin, nalidixic acid and tetracycline, and Campylobacter coli was completely resistant to cefazolin, cefoxitin and nalidixic acid; Campylobacter spp. showed the lowest resistance to imipenem. Multi-drug resistant strains accounted for 100.00% of the isolated strains. 96.83% of the strains were resistant to more than 5 drugs, with the highest number reaching 14 kinds of antibiotics.ConclusionThere is a significant difference in the contamination status and drug resistance of Campylobacter spp. isolated from four types of poultry meats sold in Jiading District, Shanghai, and the drug resistance is serious. It is strongly recommended that the use of antibiotics should be strictly controlled. Freezing can effectively reduce Campylobacter spp. pollution.
