ABSTRACT

Salmonellosis is a disease that worries poultry farmers and can seriously impact the food safety of the population that consumes products of animal origin. The present study sought to detect the presence of Salmonella spp. in eggs intended for consumption from family poultry farms in municipalities of Alagoas State. The study was carried out from eight farms, where the sample from each farm was obtained by making pools of shell and internal contents of six randomly selected eggs. The pools were submitted to microbiological culture and the colonies were characterized and evaluated by means of laboratory tests. To this end, 50% (4/8) of the shell samples and 75% (6/8) of the internal contents of the eggs were positive for Salmonella spp. In addition, Klebsiella pneumoniae 12.5% (1/8) and Proteus spp. 25% (2/8) were found in the shell samples, and Yersinia spp. 12.5% (1/8) in the internal contents of the eggs. Salmonella spp. and other enterobacteria were confirmed to occur in eggs intended for consumption. The way the birds were raised did not seem to have a significant influence on the results obtained, and the presence of passerines on the farms may have contributed to the existence of bacteria there. Being aware of the risk to public health that some of these bacteria can present, it is necessary to take decisions that support the small producer in search of food safety for all.(AU)


A Salmonelose é uma doença que preocupa os criadores de aves e pode impactar seriamente a segurança alimentar da população que consome produtos de origem animal. O presente estudo buscou detectar a presença de Salmonella spp. em ovos destinados ao consumo provindos de aviculturas familiares de municípios do Estado de Alagoas. O estudo foi realizado a partir de oito granjas, onde a amostra de cada uma delas foi obtida pela confecção de pools de casca e de conteúdo interno de seis ovos selecionados aleatoriamente. Os pools foram submetidos a cultivo microbiológico e as colônias caracterizadas e avaliadas por meio de testes laboratoriais. Para tanto, 50% (4/8) das amostras de casca e 75% (6/8) das amostras de conteúdo interno dos ovos foram positivos para Salmonella spp. Além disso, também fora constatada a presença de Klebsiella pneumoniae12.5% (1/8) e Proteus spp. 25% (2/8) nas amostras de casca, e a presença de Yersinia spp. 12.5% (1/8) no conteúdo interno dos ovos. Foi confirmada a ocorrência de Salmonella spp. e outras enterobactérias em ovos destinados ao consumo. O modo de criação das aves não parece ter influenciado significativamente nos resultados obtidos e a presença de passeriformes nas granjas podem ter contribuído com a existência das bactérias no local. Tendo ciência do risco à saúde pública que algumas dessas bactérias podem apresentar, se faz necessária a tomada de decisões que apoiem o pequeno produtor em busca de uma segurança alimentar para todos.(AU)

ABSTRACT

The objective of this study was to verify the occurrence of diarrhea and the isolation of strains of Salmonella spp. in diarrheal feces of calves from farms located in the backwoods from the state of Alagoas municipalities, and to characterize the in vitro resistance profile of Salmonella sp. isolated against conventional antimicrobials. The study was carried out with 431 calves from 10 to 90 days old, and 111 diarrheal fecal samples from these calves were analyzed. The samples were sown in enrichment broths and selective culture media and phenotypic and molecular characterization were made. 25.75% (111/431) of the animals had diarrhea. The presence of Salmonella sp. was evidenced in 13.33% (2/15) of the studied establishments. 2.71% (3/111) strains of Salmonella sp. have been isolated and have all been shown to be resistant to Cefotaxime and sensitive to Ciprofloxacin, Gentamicin, Amoxicillin, Ampicillin and Norfloxacin. The occurrence of Salmonella sp. and other infectious agents associated with diarrhea were confirmed in calves in the backwoods from the state of Alagoas. The antimicrobial potential of the tested drugs reinforces the importance of their responsible use in the fight against Salmonellosis in these animals, thus promoting the minimization of cases of bacterial resistance in Brazil and in the world.(AU)


Objetivou-se verificar a ocorrência da diarreia e o isolamento de estirpes de Salmonella sp. em fezes diarreicas de bezerros provenientes de propriedades de municípios do Sertão Alagoano e caracterizar o perfil de resistência in vitro das estir-pes de Salmonella spp. isoladas, frente a antimicrobianos convencionais. O estudo foi realizado com 431 bezerros com 10 a 90 dias de idade, sendo analisadas 111 amostras de fezes diarreicas, semeadas em caldos de enriquecimento e meios de cul-tura seletivos e feita caracterização fenotípica e molecular. 25,75% (111/431) dos animais apresentavam diarreia. A presença de Salmonella sp. foi evidenciada em 13,33% (2/15) dos estabelecimentos estudados. Foram isoladas 2,71% (3/111) estir-pes de Salmonella sp. que revelaram-se em sua totalidade resistentes à Cefotaxima e sensíveis a Ciprofloxacina, Gentamicina, Amoxicilina, Ampicilina e à Norfloxacina. Confirmou-se a ocorrência de Salmonella sp. e outros agentes infecciosos associados a diarreia em bezerros no Sertão Alagoano. O potencial antimicrobiano das drogas testadas reforça a importância da utilização responsável das mesmas no combate a Salmonelose nesses animais, promovendo assim a minimização de casos de resistência bacteriana no Brasil e no mundo.(AU)
