Salmonella control and occurence of Salmonella from 1995 to 2004 Description Publisher Finnish Food Safety Authority Evira Authors Title Salmonella control and occurence of Salmonella from 1995 to 2004 in Finland Abstract Huttunen Anna, Johansson Tuula, Kostamo Pirkko, Kuronen Henry, Laaksonen Terhi, Laihonen Mari, Lievonen Satu, Myllyniemi Anna-Liisa, Niskanen Taina, Ranta Jukka, Rosengren Heidi, Siitonen Anja, Tuominen Pirkko, Varimo Kaija ja Varjonen Mika Salmonella rarely appears among production animals in Finland. In connection with joining the European Union in 1995, Finland established a national Salmonella control programme. Evidence of the country’s excellent disease situation produced by this programme makes additional guarantees possible, i.e., the right to demand that imported eggs and the meat of pigs, cattle and poultry are analyzed for Salmonella. The objective of the programme is to keep the occurrence of Salmonella in production animals and foodstuffs originating from these below the level of 1% annually. During the first decade of the programme, variations became apparent in the number of production animals covered by the Salmonella control. The production of poultry increased by 104%, that of pork by 19% and beef production declined by about 3%. For poultry, the prevalence of Salmonella is primarily determined from the faeces of living birds. Among cattle and swine, monitoring of Salmonella is based on samples from slaughterhouses and those collected at farms when Salmonella infection is suspected. During the period from 1995 to 2004, no Salmonella was detected among the parent and grandparent flocks of hens. Except for one year, the proportion of positive rearing flocks of laying hens was below 0.6%, while the respective figure for egg production flocks was below 0.2 %. Among parent and grandparent generations of broilers and turkeys, Salmonella was only found among a maximum of 0.5% of the flocks. For meat production flocks, Salmonella was found less than 1.0%, except in 1995 and 1999. Close to 90 000 lymph node samples, surface-swabs and meat samples were taken in slaughterhouses and cutting plants. Less than 0.2% of the tested samples were positive for Salmonella. Corresponding figures among swine were approximately 155 000 and 0.1%. Beyond the control programme, the occurrence of Salmonella was also examined in feedstuffs and pet-animal feeds. The occurrence of Salmonella in feeds intended for food production animals has been rare, irrespective of the fact that raw materials of vegetable origin (e.g. crushed oil plant seeds) that are used in the production of feedstuffs have increasingly displayed Salmonella (5 to 16% of import batches) in later years. Self-checking by operators and control by authorities have been found efficient in preventing Salmonella from spreading to processes in feed factories and from there in feedstuffs to animal farms. National and local investigations have shown the occurrence of Salmonella in foodstuffs in retail sale to be extremely rare. Risk assessments performed demonstrate that in effect the control programme protects consumers. For broilers and eggs the effects are substantial, while for beef and pork they are less clear. At the end of the 1990s, some 3000 cases of Salmonella were reported annually among the population. From 2000 to 2004, the number of cases was less than 2500. From 14 to 34% of the cases were infections acquired in the home country, while the rest were associated with travelling. From one to eight food borne outbreaks caused by Salmonella were reported annually.
