本研究的目的是从巴西联邦区销售的冷冻鸡尸体中分离空肠弯曲菌，并对菌株进行细菌培养。共采集92份冷却鸡胴体样品，其中18份（19.56%）检出C.空肠。共检测了16株菌株对8种抗菌药物的敏感性。16株菌均对环丙沙星耐药，15株对萘啶酸、链霉素、四环素、庆大霉素耐药，14株对阿莫西林耐药，11株对红霉素耐药，6株对氯霉素耐药。本研究首次报道了C.在巴西联邦区销售的冷冻鸡胴体中的空肠。这些结果可能表明这种食品加工的某些步骤存在缺陷，并突出了由于分离菌株表现出的高水平抗性而可能存在的公共卫生问题。
The aim of the present study was to perform microbiological isolation of Campylobacter jejuni from chilled chicken carcasses marketed in the Federal District of Brazil and to subject the strains to an antibiogram. A total of 92 samples from chilled chicken carcasses were acquired, 18 of which (19.56%) tested positive for C. jejuni. A total of 16 strains were tested for susceptibility to eight antimicrobial drugs. All 16 strains were resistant to ciprofloxacin, 15 strains to nalidixic acid, streptomycin, tetracycline, and gentamycin, 14 strains to amoxicillin, 11 strains to erythromycin, and 6 strains to chloramphenicol. The present study is the first to report on the presence of C. jejuni in chilled chicken carcasses marketed in the Federal District region of Brazil. These results may indicate flaws in certain steps of this food processing and highlight a possible public health problem due to the high level of resistance exhibited by the isolated strains.
