Prevalence of Pathogenic Bacterial and Antimicrobial Resistance on Eggshells from Markets in Lagos, Nigeria: Implications for Public Health and Food Safety

2024-10-31

Abstract excerpt

This study investigates the prevalence of pathogenic bacteria on eggshells from table eggs sold in Lagos markets, a major concern given eggs' role as a staple in the Nigerian diet. Fifty-one eggs were sampled from three poultry farms and three supermarkets, with bacterial isolation and identification conducted via microbiological assays and biochemical testing. The findings revealed that all eggshell samples (100%...
