Zusammenfassung:The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of spp., Enteritidis and Typhimurium in retail beef from different retail markets of Selangor area, as well as, to assess their pathogenic potential and antimicrobial resistance. A total of 240 retail beef meat samples (chuck = 60; rib = 60; round = 60; sirloin = 60) were randomly collected. The multiplex polymerase chain reaction (mPCR) in combination with the most probable number (MPN) method was employed to detect spp., . Enteritidis and . Typhimurium in the meat samples. The prevalence of spp., . Enteritidis and . Typhimurium in 240 beef meat samples were 7.50, 1.25, and 0.83%, respectively. The microbial loads of total was found in the range of
