Abstract
The present study was carried out with aim of isolating and identifying the Salmonella spp. from raw poultry meat sold at retail poultry meat shops in Anand, Gujarat.
The samples of raw poultry meat consist of muscles and liver (100 each) collected aseptically from local meat market and subjected first to pre enrichment in lactose broth and then enrichment in tetrathionate broth (TTB) followed by plating on two selective media viz. xylose lysine deoxycholate (XLD) and bismuth sulphite agar (BSA). The colonies showing typical colony characteristics were further characterized on the basis of their morphological and biochemical characteristics. The isolates were serotyped at National Salmonella and Escherchia Centre (NSEC), Central Research Institute (CRI), Kasauli (Himachal Pradesh), India. Out of 30 isolates, 15 isolates were serotyped as S. Typhimurium
