Occurrence of Campylobacter spp. and Arcobacter spp. in goats
Arcobacter spp. and Campylobacter spp. belong to the family Campylobacteraceae but they differ in that Arcobacter can grow at temperature below 30°C and aerotolerance. Campylobacter is a zoonotic foodborne pathogen and can be divided into thermophilic and non-thermophilc Campylobacter. Thermophilic...
