Abstract
SUMMARY: Living flies collected from three locations were cultured on selective medium forCampylobacterspp.Campylobacter jejuniwas isolated from five (2·4%) of 210 flies examined.These results suggest that the potential hazard to health from the transmission of campylobacters from animals to human food by flies is small.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
