Abstract

How to reduce campylobacteriosis?

• Campylobacteriosis has a high public health relevance as the primary cause of bacterial gastroenteritis in Europe.
• The majority of foodborne infections are linked to the consumption of broilers.
• Reducing the presence of Campylobacter in broilers can have significant impact on disease in humans.
• Broilers with outdoor access present a bigger challenge than conventional indoor broilers because of limited options for biosecurity.

Study aim: test the effect of selected feed/water additives on lowering the load of Campylobacter in caecum of broilers at a commercial free-range broiler farm.
