Chicken that having an important role in human nutrition is animportant source of development of microorganisms and pathogenicmicroorganisms, due to the appropriate composition and environmental conditionsamong animal foods. Therefore Salmonella serotypes are the mostimportant ones among the pathogens isolated from chicken. In our study, 40 rawchicken samples taken from food enterprises producing poultry meat in theAegean Region  were examined anaylses of Salmonella spp.by using the Vidas Salmonella (Biomeriux) kit procedure by the miniVIDAS instrument. Salmonella species of the production stages aretransmitted to chicken meat in different ways and these microorganisms can passto humans and cause important health problems with the consumption of theseproducts by causing various infections or intoxications (poisoning) in person.In this respect, the complete fulfillment of all hygiene rules, from productionto sale, of these products will also eliminate the risks that may arise frompublic health.
