				Abstract 
 
				Aim: 
				This study 
				aimed to detect Salmonella species found as contaminants 
				in chicken carcass (thigh, breast, wings, liver, and gizzard).
				 
				Materials and 
				Methods: 
				A total of 75 
				chicken samples including thigh, breast, wings, liver, and 
				gizzard (15 of each) were collected from different markets in 
				Sohag city for detection of Salmonella species by culture 
				methods, biochemical tests, serology, and polymerase chain 
				reaction.  
				Results:
				The 
				overall incidence of Salmonella contamination of 75 
				examined samples was found to be 6.6% with the higher percentage 
				of Salmonella being isolated from liver samples (13.3%) 
				followed by thigh, wings, gizzard (6.6%) while breast show 
				negative result.  
				Conclusion:
				
				Results in this study indicate that contamination of chicken 
				carcass with Salmonella needs strict hygienic measures to 
				prevent their transmission to human.  
				
				Keywords: 
				
				chicken carcass, invA gene, Salmonella spp.
