description Escherichia coli O157:H7 has been an important problem of public health in most countries of the world since 1982. This study was therefore aimed to investigate the presence of E. coli O157:H7 in chicken meat samples collected from various markets in Şanlıurfa region which was located in Southern Turkey. For this purpose, 155 chicken meat samples were analyzed between September 2005 and February 2006. The samples were plated onto CT-SMAC after enrichment process. Suspected colonies were then subjected for identification of E. coli O157:H7 given in materials and methods section. E.coli O157 and E.coli O157:H7 was found in 9 (5.81%) and 3 (1.94%) of total 155 samples, respectively. The results showed that control measures should be developed to prevent contamination with this pathogen in chicken meats in this region. To our knowledge, this is the first report of isolation of these bacteria from chicken meat samples in Southern Turkey.
