Campylobacter is the most common cause of food borne-illness in the UK. An EU baseline study estimated prevelance in broilers of 75 percent and in boiler carcasses of 86 percent (ESFA, 2011). It is responsible for over 80 deaths p.a. in the UK, over 65 percent of which is derived from campylobacter infected chicken (FSA, 2011). This project will develop two main intervention strategies on the farmand slaughterhouse to reduce the burden of Campylobacter in the UK poultry industry. This is particularly timely due to the recent targets released by the FSA to reduce the proportion of high contaminated carcasses from 27 to 10 percent by 2015. The strategies are based on dietary supplements aimed at reducing Campylobacter survival in the gut (novel anti-microbials); and deployment of novel screening technologies to increase contamination detection on cracasses in the slaughterhouse (flourescent faecal markers).

弯曲杆菌是英国最常见的食物中毒原因。欧盟的一项基线研究估计，肉鸡中的流行率为75%，锅炉胴体中的流行率为86%（欧洲水产品局，2011年）。它每年造成80多人死亡。在英国，其中超过65%来自弯曲杆菌感染的鸡（FSA，2011）。该项目将针对农场和屠宰场制定两项主要干预策略，以减轻弯曲杆菌在英国家禽业中的负担。这是特别及时的，因为FSA最近发布的目标是到2015年将高污染尸体的比例从27%降至10%。这些策略基于旨在减少肠道中弯曲杆菌存活的膳食补充剂（新型抗微生物剂）;以及部署新型筛选技术以增加屠宰场中的cracasses污染检测（氟代菌粪便标记物）。
