Detection of Salmonella spp. in chicken meat sold in the Municipal Market No. 2 of Tarapoto District - San Martin Region. Chicken meat is one of the most popular foodstuffs among the inhabitants of Peru (1), due to its high protein value and low cost, but according to several studies, the post-mortem microbial load index in chicken carcasses is significantly high (2). This is due to the fact that during the production chain (slaughtering, transport, commercialization) the minimum conditions to ensure food safety are not met. The consumption of this food under such conditions puts the consumer´s health at risk, being a possible triggering factor of food poisoning, as a consequence of consuming food containing pathogenic microorganisms (3). For the execution of this work, stalls of the Municipal Market N°2 of the city of Tarapoto, which sell the raw material, chicken meat, were evaluated. The objective was to evaluate the prevalence of Salmonella spp. in chicken meat. Consequently, 15 stalls that sell this raw material were analyzed and 5 samples were processed per stall, respectively. The type of study carried out is transectional or cross-sectional, and a microbiological method based on ISO 6579-01 standards was used to analyze the samples. At the end of the investigation a result of 85.3% of the samples were positive for Salmonella spp. was obtained, leading to the conclusion that the prevalence of Salmonella spp. is high and public health could be at risk.
