title: Campylobacter jejuni: incidence in processed broilers and biotype distribution in human and broiler isolates.
abstract: Campylobacter jejuni was isolated from 18 of 40 processed broiler carcasses and 134 of 327 cloacal swabs obtained at four processing plants in Sydney, Australia. Three of four flocks examined carried C. jejuni. Eighty-two percent of chicken and 98% of human isolates from the area were of identical biotypes.
