RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN AGE AND INFECTION BY CAMPYLOBACTER SPP. IN DOGS OF CORDOBA (SPAIN)
Abstract
Several species of Campylobacter genus are the most frequent agents isolated from human patients with food-borne toxi-infections. Feeding of chicken meat contaminated with C. jejuni and C. coli is the main route of human transmission. Nevertheless, the transmission by direct contact with pets (mainly dogs) that can be enteric hosts for several species like C. jejuni, C. coli or C. upsaliensis is widely accepted
