Impact of Heat Stress on Poultry Production
Lucas J. Lara,Marcos H. Rostagno +1 more
TL;DR: Further research is still needed to improve the knowledge of basic mechanisms associated to the negative effects of heat stress in poultry, as well as to develop effective interventions to deal with heat stress conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preslaughter holding environment in pork plants is highly contaminated with Salmonella enterica
Marcos H. Rostagno,H. S. Hurd,James D. McKean,Cherie J. Ziemer,J. K. Gailey,Rômulo Cerqueira Leite +5 more
TL;DR: The abattoir holding pens are identified as a significant hazard and a potential control point for Salmonella contamination in the preharvest pork production chain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pre-harvest risk factors for Salmonella enterica in pork production ☆
TL;DR: It is concluded that pre-harvest Salmonella control programs must be based essentially on strict measures of biosecurity and hygiene, which should minimize the risk of exposure of the pigs to potential infection sources, as well as the persistence of the bacteria in the herd.
Journal ArticleDOI
Salmonella Prevalence in Market-Age Turkeys On-Farm and at Slaughter
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the preslaughter practices of feed withdrawal, catching, loading, transportation, and holding do not significantly alter the prevalence of Salmonella in market-age turkeys, and it may be possible to monitor the Salmoneella status of turkey production farms based on samples collected at the abattoir.
Research Note Resting Pigs on Transport Trailers as an Intervention Strategy To Reduce Salmonella enterica Prevalence at Slaughter
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate a potential intervention strategy to reduce the prevalence of Salmonella enterica-positive pigs at slaughter, which consisted of resting pigs prior to slaughter on their transport vehicle, instead of in the abattoir holding pen.
