According to Color Atlas and Textbook of Diagnostic Microbiology, 1988, Campylobacter sp.are found worldwide. It is ubiquitous in domestic animals-housepets
may carry the organism, and the vast majority of chickens, turkeys, and
waterfowl are colonized. Ingestion of raw milk, partially cooked poultry,
or contaminated water are the common sources of human infection.
