This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of Arcobacter species identified or isolated from retail meats in Korea. Multiplex PCR assays for the detection of Arcobacter species were performed for 360 chicken, 100 pork, and 106 beef samples. Arcobacter butzleri and Arcobacter cryaerophilus were detected in 18.9 and 3.3% of chicken samples, respectively. However, Arcobacter species were not found in any of the pork and beef samples. Biochemical testing of isolates selected after enrichment revealed 38 A. butzleri isolates in chicken samples, but no A. cryaerophilus isolates were detected. In this study, A. butzleri was the most prevalent Arcobacter species in chicken meat, and contamination with Arcobacter species in pork and beef may be less prevalent in Korea.
本研究旨在确定从韩国零售肉类中鉴定或分离出的弯曲菌属物种的流行率。对 360 份鸡肉、100 份猪肉和 106 份牛肉样本进行了弯曲菌属物种的多重 PCR 检测。在鸡肉样本中分别检测到 18.9%和 3.3%的弯曲菌属和嗜冷弯曲菌。然而,在猪肉和牛肉样本中均未发现弯曲菌属物种。对富集后选择的分离株进行的生化试验显示,鸡肉样本中有 38 株 A. butzleri 分离株,但未检测到 A. cryaerophilus 分离株。在本研究中,A. butzleri 是鸡肉中最常见的弯曲菌属物种,而在韩国,猪肉和牛肉中弯曲菌属物种的污染可能较少。
