One of the major transmission routes for the foodborne bacterial pathogen Campylobacter is undercooked poultry meat, contaminated from intestinal contents during processing. In broilers, Campylobacter can grow to very high densities in the caeca, and... Read More about Investigating the association between the caecal microbiomes of broilers and Campylobacter burden.
