Abstract
Salmonella infection in poultry is a problem for producers because it reduces flock performance. At the same time, salmonella-contaminated animal products endanger human health. Salmonellae is a genus in the Enterobacteriaceae family of gram-negative, rod-shaped, glucose-fermenting facultative anaerobes with motile peritrichous flagella. In this study, 100 cloacal swabs were collected from diseased broiler farms showing diarrhoea and depression at various intervals. Morphologically identified Salmonella appeared as smooth red colonies with a black centre on (XLD) media, while on McConkey agar appeared as pale, colourless smooth transparent colonies. Citrate Utilisation, Methyle Red, and Lysine Iron Agar showed positive results, whereas Oxidase, Urea, Indole, and Voges-Proskauer showed negative results.
