Table 2:

Summary statistics of the results of chicken meat samples from Peruvian traditional markets analyzed by qPCR for Campylobacter spp. The results are shown by region studied and in total.

Number of samples Positive Proportion (95% CI) Enumeration mean (log10 GC/g) (Min-Max) Enumeration mean of positive samples (log10 GC/g) (Min-Max)

Huancayo 30 25 83.33% a (66% – 93%) 3.21 a (0 – 4.82) 3.85 (3.02 – 4.82)
Huaral 30 30 100% a (89% – 100%) 5.80 b (4.48 – 6.84) 5.80 (4.48 – 6.84)
Tumbes/Piura 30 13 43.33% b (27% – 61%) 2.07 a (0 – 5.87) 4.78 (3.61 – 5.87)
Total 90 68 75.56% (66% – 83%) 3.69 (0 – 6.84) 4.89 (3.02 – 6.84)

95% CI = 95% confidence intervals

Superscripts a and b next to the proportion of positives correspond to the differences found when comparing the confidence intervals and superscripts a and b next to the enumeration mean correspond to the differences found using Kruskal Wallis post hoc test.
