The control of salmonellae in foods and animals in Germany, 1991, is based on voluntary contributions of veterinary institutions, e. g. governmental investigation centres, universities, agricultural institutions and slaughter-house laboratories. The results of questionnaire-based evaluations are presented (s. a. HARTUNG, 1993 a). Also reported were 101 outbreaks involving 2272 cases of salmonellosis (fig. 1), of which 92% were caused by S. enteritidis. 46% of the cases were caused by egg and egg-containing meals, 24% by bakery products, often containing raw eggs. From poultry meat the organism was only isolated in less than 1% of the known cases. Meat and meat products (10%) and milk (5%) were further sources of infection. Summarizing it can be assumed that in 70% of the cases the cause of foodborne salmonellosis were meals prepared with raw eggs. The mean salmonella rate in routine food investigations was 0.88% (tab. 1). Poultry had a salmonella rate of 13% and eggs, incl. egg-containing dishes, a rate of 1%. All other food groups were contaminated with salmonella at the level of the mean rate (meat and meat products) or less (fish and milk and their products: 0.1%). The mean salmonella rate in diagnostic examinations of domestic animals was 5.77% (tab. 2). Cattle and chicken showed salmonella rates at the level of the mean rate, whereas pig, sheep, goats and equines showed much lower levels. On the other hand "other poultry" (9.5%) and especially chicks (13%) had higher levels of salmonella.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
