International Conference on the Epidemiology and Control of Biological, Chemical and Physical Hazards in Pigs and Pork
The SafePork conference series began in 1996 to bring together international researchers, industry, and government agencies to discuss current Salmonella research and identify research needs pertaining to both pig and pork production. In subsequent years topics of research presented at these conferences expanded to include other chemical and biological hazards to pig and pork production.

Abstract
Samples of ‘meat-juice’, serum, caecal contents and carcase swabs from 420 pigs from 20 finishing farms were tested for Salmonella bacteriologically and serologically by ELISA on individual samples or on pools of serum or meat juice. In addition pooled floor faeces were taken from the finishing pens on the farm of origin.
