A total of 161 strains of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni were isolated from house flies (Musca domestica). The carrier rates detected were 50.7% in flies captured on a chicken farm and 43.2% in flies from a piggery. The relative prevalences of Campylobacter coli, C. jejuni, and nalidixic acid-resistant thermophilic campylobacters were 90.1, 6.2, and 3.7%, respectively. The results indicate that flies may play a linking role in the epidemiology of Campylobacter infection in humans by transmitting campylobacters from animals to human food.
共从家蝇(Musca domestica)中分离出161株空肠弯曲菌胎儿亚种。在养鸡场捕获的苍蝇中检测到的携带率为50.7%,在养猪场的苍蝇中为43.2%。空肠弯曲菌、空肠弯曲菌胎儿亚种和耐萘啶酸嗜热弯曲菌的相对流行率分别为90.1%、6.2%和3.7%。结果表明,苍蝇可能通过将弯曲菌从动物传播到人类食物,在人类弯曲菌感染的流行病学中发挥连接作用。
