Abstract

This study carried out in Salahaldeen province in period January to September 2019. The aims of this study were to investigate the incidence of salmonella typhimurium and salmonella dublin in cow by using of PCR test.
The results of current study showed that salmonella species isolation from cow in rate of 13.3% by culture methods, high of them from aborted cows in rate of 22.2%. Result of PCR test showed that salmonella typhimurium and salmonella Dublin detection in rate of 55% and 25% respectively while other salmonella species detected in rate of 20% from total salmonella isolates .
