Abstract | ||
To study the incidence of Salmonella spp. in meat products such as raw meat, minced meat, sausage and hawawshi, a total of 160 meat products samples were collected from shops and supermarkets; 40 samples of each product. It was observed that 17.5% (7/40) of raw meat; 10% (4/40) of minced meat; 10% (4/40) of sausage; and 15% (6/40) of hawawshi were positive for Salmonella. Positive samples of Salmonella were identified by serology typing (Salmonella Newport, Salmonella typhimurium and Salmonella senftenberg). | ||
