- Resumen
EL CONSUMO DE CARNE DE AVE ESTA FRECUENTEMENTE IMPLICADA EN LOS BROTES TOXIALIMENTARIOS POR SALMONELLA QUE SE DAN TANTO A NIVEL DE EURO Eggs and poultry meat are a common source of human salmonellosis.
Contamination of poultry or poultry meat may occur throughout the production chain.
Nevertheless, in Spain non contaminated broiler meat may be sold for human consumption from 2011. Before Salmonella prevalence in broiler flocks (EFSA, 2007) and the Community objectives for Salmonella control in poultry farms were established (EC, 2007) non official dates were available regarding the Salmonella situation in broiler production in Spain. In this context, in 2005 the Regional Ministry of Environment and Rural and Marine Affairs of the Valencia Region invested in the study of the main sources of Salmonella contamination in broiler flocks reared in the Region of Valencia and the study of Salmonella epidemiology in field conditions. These studies were intended to anticipate the National Control Programme for Salmonella in broiler production with the aim of applying proper measures to comply with the future Community objectives. This study started in October 2005 and finished in October 2007. Over a two year period, 65 flocks from different farms were intensively sampled during the rearing stage. Broiler farms were distributed throughout the Valencia Region.
