The number of broiler flocks positive for Campylobacter in Norway increased in 2023 but is still at low levels, according to the latest data.

Public health officials in Sweden have noted an increase in the number of people falling ill with Campylobacter infections this month.
The rise coincides with an increase in Campylobacter in
Campylobacter types found in fresh chicken often matched those from ill people showing poultry is still a common source of infection in Sweden.
Researchers studied the genetic similarity between Campylobacter
A project led by the National Food Institute, Technical University of Denmark, has developed a test method to improve the likelihood of identifying Campylobacter-positive chicken flocks.
Being able to identify
The level of Campylobacter in Swedish poultry for meat production is at an all-time low, according to the Swedish Poultry Meat Association.
The group claims the presence of Campylobacter in
A study on Campylobacter in Norwegian broiler flocks older than 50 days at slaughter has indicated age and outdoor access are important risk factors.
The research work in 2018 shows
Cross-contamination during transportation and slaughter of poultry plays an important role for Campylobacter, according to researchers.
The study investigated the prevalence of Campylobacter in birds from three farms at different
Denmark found Salmonella in 2.7 percent of chicken flocks that lay eggs last year which is above the limit set by the European Commission to qualify for special conditions.
Despite Salmonella being the most common illness-causing foodborne bacteria in the U.S. food system, still very little is known about the precise processes through which the bacterium contaminates and
