Data for: Prevalence and antimicrobial resistant Campylobacter spp. in broiler chicken carcasses and hygiene practises in informal urban markets in a low-income setting

Boqvist, S., Erume, J., Okello, P.

Sammanfattning

This project aimed to contribute to reduced spread of antimicrobial resistant (AMR) zoonotic bacteria in urban livestock production systems in low-income countries (LIC). This was done by providing new data on spread and diversity of antimicrobial resistant Campylobacter strains. Drivers to mitigate disease and reduce antimicrobial usage was also generated which will facilitate future initiatives for coordinated actions to reduce spread of AMR.

The project investigated the prevalence of Campylobacter on broiler chicken carcasses sold at informal markets around the capital Kampala in Uganda. Antimicrobial resistance of the isolated Campylobacter strains was analyzed against five different antibiotics: tetracycline, ciprofloxacin, streptomycin, erythromycin, and nalidixic acid. The data file contains 36 rows (Campylobacter strains) and 14 columns, and the data is explained in the documentation file "read_me_AMR_campylobacter."

The vendors selling the broiler chicken carcasses included in the study were interviewed orally using a questionnaire to gather information about their knowledge, practices, and routines related to food safety and food hygiene at the included markets. The data file contains 120 rows (respondents) and 41 columns (survey questions). The data is explained in the documentation file "read_me_food_safety_questionnaire_results."
