Description
Khoshi Ari Muhammed and Eman Dhahir Arif survey Salmonella germs at a chicken wet market in Iraq, in a 2026 study. Salmonella spreads through food and lives in the gut of chickens, so market tools and water can carry it to buyers. The team sampled a broiler market in Sulaymaniyah province over six months.
They gathered 210 samples across the market, drawing on gut contents, water, knives, and chopping boards, plus swabs from workers' hands and bird bodies. Culture found Salmonella in about half. Gene tests named the species in most culture hits, and over three fifths of those were the Typhimurium type, many carrying a key invasion gene. Boards showed the highest species rate. The local strain grouped with world strains, which hints at shared roots across borders.
