Detection of Shigella Spp. In the Locally Produced Broilers Freeze in Diyala

Abstract

The study conducted to indicate the contamination degree in the locally produced of broilers freeze meat that caused of food poisoning by determined of Shigella SPP bacteria, and its effect in public health with experimentally comparative measurements of Shigella spp. 60 samples of locally produced broilers were been collected, 30 samples to each summer (July – August) and winter (December – January) to investigate their microbial load of this bacteria. The results showed in all summer and winter samples were differential significant (p<0.01) microbial count of Shigella spp .and we showed the same significant (p<0.01) of CFU/ g of shigella bacteria count from summer neither than winter.
