Campylobacter was isolated from 103 of 173 (59%) specimens of healthy slaughter pig faeces, washed intestines and water samples collected from an abattoir and butcher's shop in West Germany. As most cases of human campylobacter enteritis are caused by C. jejuni, an attempt was made to find this organism among the isolates. Twenty-five of the 103 strains (24%) were identified as C. jejuni. It was also isolated from salted water samples after overnight bowel storage in the butcher's shop, indicating that the customary salt preparation of the intestines did not eliminate all organisms present.
