title: [Isolation of Campylobacter species from various animals and evaluation of zoonotic aspects].
abstract: Campylobacter species isolated from animal sources during 5-years period were documented in this report. Campylobacter species were isolated from 1077 (58.1%) of the 1852 specimens from cattle, sheep, dogs, cat and chickens. Of the 1077 strains obtained, the most common species were C. jejuni, C. coli and C. fetus subsp. fetus. Isolates of Campylobacter species were cultured most commonly from intestines (94.8%) and liver (56%) of chickens and gallbladders of sheep (57.3%). The potential roles of animal sources in human Campylobacter infections were discussed.
