Abstract:

Eight poultry samples including chicken and duck were collected in a certain fresh market and were enriched in Bolton and Preston broths,followed by the inoculation on selective agar media ( Skirrow and mCCDA) and by the membrane filtration. Then,the molecular types of the isolated Campylobacter strains were analyzed by means of pulse field gel electrophoresis ( PFGE) and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis ( DGGE) ,and C. jejuni or C. coli were isolated from six samples. The results show that the combination of Preston broth and mCCDA media is the optimal isolation method,that there are four samples contaminated by the same C. coli isolate and two samples contaminated respectively by 2 species of C. jejuni and 3 species of C. coli,and that,though DGGE genotyping is not as sensitive as PFGE genotyping,it is more suitable for the rapid genotyping of Campylobacter in food borne because it is of high speed,low cost as well as stable and accurate operation.
