Salmonella in the poultry industry
Salmonella is a genus of bacteria containing two species and more than 2500 serovars. It is a major foodborne pathogen that can cause a variety of illnesses ranging from self-limiting gastroenteritis to severe systemic infection and death, both in animals and humans. Animals are infected with this pathogen by eating contaminated food or inheriting it from their mothers before they are born or hatched. Salmonella infections are a huge public health concern and hamper animal husbandry efforts worldwide.
