摘要:
Air was sampled for viable bacteria in the shackling room of a poultry processing plant. Large numbers of bacteria were isolated from the workers’ breathing zone, and gram‐negative organisms were characterized. The probable source of airborne gram‐negative bacteria and their endotoxins was identified as the birds’ feces. These data suggest a potential health risk for workers due to inhalation of viable bacteria.
