Abstract
⺠We detected Shiga toxin and intimin encoding genes in cloacae from chickens and in chicken products. ⺠The number of positive samples for each gene differed among chicken products and types of shops. ⺠STEC detection in hamburgers could indicate cross contamination during handling at butcheries. ⺠EPEC contamination may result from contamination at slaughter as it was detected in cloacal samples.
