Quantification Quantification CampylobacterCampylobacter• Direct plating (dilutions): Direct plating (dilutions):
– Carcases – Carcases after chilling – Results: very small colonies growing in
most plates (Gram stain: G (-) coccoid bacteria- viable Campylobacter?) but also confirmed Campylobacter colonies in a few plates
• Real time-PCR Real time-PCR – More research needed (primers and
controls)

Food Science Australia's microbiologists have examined the prevalence of Escherichia coli 0157 and Salmonella in Australian cattle and assisted industry in developing control measures for these human pathogens. This research has also been used by the Australian meat industry in discussions with trading partners including the USA
