Abstract
Raw milk samples collected from bulk tank trucks of milk suppliers in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Illinois were analyzed for Salmonella, Campylobacter jejuni, and Yersinia enterocolitica. Salmonella spp. were isolated from 32 (4.7%) of 678 samples, and C. jejuni was found in one (0.4%) of 237 samples. Although Y. enterocolitica was recovered from 114 (48.1%) of 237 samples, all isolates were environmental, non-virulent strains.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
