This study evaluated the effects of using 1% or 2% Citrox alone or in combination with 1% chitosan on C. jejuni in Campylobacter blood-free selective medium (modified CCDA-Preston) (Oxoid CM 0739, Basingstoke, UK) supplemented with CCDA Selective Supplement (Oxoid SR 0155, Basingstoke, UK) at 42 °C for 24 to 48 h.
One hundred microliters of C. jejuni ATCC 33291 culture (106 cfu/mL) was spread using a cotton swab on the surface of Campylobacter blood-free selective medium (modified CCDA-Preston) (Oxoid CM 0739, Basingstoke, UK) supplemented with CCDA Selective Supplement (Oxoid SR 0155, Basingstoke, UK). Using the agar diffusion method, a hole with a diameter of 8 mm was punched aseptically using a sterile cork borer, and 100 µL of 1% or 2% Citrox solution was introduced into each well. To compare its effects on C. jejuni, 1% chitosan was mixed with the same volume of 1% or 2% Citrox. The plates were then incubated at 42 °C for 48 to 72 h under a microaerophilic atmosphere in the presence of CO2. The diameter (mm) of the zone of inhibition was determined.

In the laboratory, caecal samples were streaked directly onto two selective solid media: Karmali agar (Oxoid, UK) and Campylobacter blood-free agar (Oxoid) with CCDA selective supplement (Oxoid). The swabs from carcasses were placed in 5 ml of Bolton enrichment broth (Oxoid, UK) supplemented with 5% lysed horse blood and modified Bolton broth supplement. The cultures from both types of samples were incubated at 41.5 o C for 48 h under microaerobic conditions using the CampyGen kit (Oxoid). Campylobacter bacteria were isolated and identified according to the ISO 10272-1:2006 standard. Briefly, after the enrichment step, the cultures from swab samples were plated onto Karmali agar (Oxoid) and Campylobacter blood-free agar (Oxoid) with CCDA selective supplement (Oxoid) and incubated at 41.5 o C for 48 h under microaerobic conditions. The plates with caecal and carcass bacterial cultures were then examined for morphologically typical Campylobacter colonies (grayish, often with a metallic sheen, flat, and moist with a tendency to spread) and from each sample, one presumptive Campylobacter isolate was confirmed by PCR assay as previously described (Wieczorek et al. 2013) . Furthermore, the isolated strains were identified as C. jejuni or C. coli by PCR (Wieczorek and Osek 2005) .

The preparation of the samples and isolation of Campylobacter spp. from the examined samples was done according to FDA [14 ]. The pH of the samples was adjusted to 7.5±0.2, and then centrifugation of 50 g portion at 20,000 ×g for 40 min was attained. Supernatant was discarded and pellets were dissolved in 10 ml Bolton broth (supplemented with Bolton broth Selective Supplement and Laked Horse Blood, Oxoid) and then was transmitted to 90 ml enrichment broth and incubated at 42°C for 48 h in an anaerobic jar containing a gas generating Kit (Oxoid). The Campylobacter blood free selective agar (mCCDA-Preston, Oxoid) which was supplemented with CCDA selective supplement (Oxoid), were then streaked with a loopful of each enrichment broth, and subsequently, incubated at 42°C for 48 h under microaerobic condition. From 2 to 3 presumptive Campylobacter colonies were purified on Columbia blood agar (containing 7% defibrinated sheep blood)without supplement. About 100 Campylobacter isolates were submitted to Gram-stain, oxidase, catalase, inability to grow aerobically at 25°C, hippurate hydrolysis and resistance to naladixic acid and cephalothin to exclude Campylobacter spp. except C. jejuni and C. coli.

One gram of each sample was homogenized with 9 mL of Bolton broth containing 5% hemolyzed horse blood and a Bolton broth selective supplement (Oxoid, United Kingdom). The samples were incubated at 42°C for 48 h microaerobically. On the following day, one loop of broth was streaked onto modified charcoal cefoperazone deoxycholate agar (mCCDA) containing CCDA selective supplement (Oxoid), and then the samples were incubated at 42°C for 48 h microaerobically. Next, two to six suspected colonies from the mCCDA plates were picked, subcultured in blood agar, and incubated microaerobically at 42°C for 48 h. To identify C. jejuni isolates, multiplex PCR targeting the 16S rRNA gene and cj0414 and singleplex PCR targeting hipO were performed using the DNA templates, according to methods described previously (Yamazaki-Matsune et al., 2007 (link); Supplementary Table S2).

To establish an initial gut flora, day-of-hatch specific-pathogen-free (SPF) Light Sussex chicks were fed with 0.1 ml of Campylobacter-free adult gut flora preparations. These preparations were generated by taking 1 g of caecal contents from a 50-week old SPF chicken and using it to inoculate 10 ml of LB broth, which was incubated in static culture for 24 h at 37˚C. Birds were fed a vegetable based diet (Special Diet Services). After two weeks, five chickens housed in a single cage, were orally infected with 0.1 ml of a MH broth culture containing 1x10 9 , 1x10 9 , 1x10 10 CFU ml -1 of the M1 wild type, M1 ΔCJM1_0368b and M1 CJM1_0368*, respectively. Seven days post inoculation (p.i.), chickens were sacrificed and caecal contents were serially diluted in PBS and plated onto blood-free Campylobacter selective agar containing CCDA-selective supplement (Oxoid). Plates were incubated in microaerophilic conditions for 48 h and CFU enumerated. The number of Campylobacter CFU per gram of caecal content was calculated.
