Occurrence of Helicobacter spp. in the gastrointestinal tract of broiler chickens in the Czech Republic
Original language description
The aim of this study was to monitor occurrence of Helicobacter spp. in 29 conventional broiler-chicken farms, in the Czech Republic. In the period February 2013 - March 2014, a total of 615 samples of caecum content of slaughtered broilers were examined. Detection was performed by optimized cultivation techniques using Brucella Agar with 5 % sheep blood and by PCR method. Identification at genus and species level was performed using PCR-RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism). Presence of Helicobacter spp. was confirmed in 248 broilers (40.32 %). Using PCR-RFLP method with the restriction enzyme ApaLI, these 248 positive samples were identified as Helicobacter pullorum. Occurrence of this pathogen was confirmed in 17 conventional farms, the within-farm prevalence ranged from 40 % - 100 %. The results show that Helicobacter pullorum is another potential foodborne pathogen with a high incidence in the digestive tract of broiler chickens and may present a potential risk for human
