Among the poultry samples tested, 13% werepositive for Salmonella. Salmonella Enteritidis dominated with a prevalence of 80.7%, and 40 of the 42 isolates harbored two ormore resistance determinants. For the 178 pigs investigated, 49.4% of the swabs and 34.8% of the lymph nodes were Salmonellapositive. The most prevalent serotypes in lymph nodes were Salmonella Derby (50.0%) and Salmonella Typhimurium (27.4%).
From the Salmonella isolates from pigs, only 6% were sensitive to the antimicrobial agents tested. The high resistance level ofSalmonella isolates from pigs and chicken carcasses to different classes of antimicrobials should be emphasized and encourage aprudent use of these agents in animal farming, especially in pig production.

The equipmentand facilities of animal slaughterhouses examined in Hanoi are imports, mainly from India. The annual import of poultry from six complex slaughterhouses, consisting of 8 to 12 lines for meat is approximately 1,300 metric tons, valued at US$2.4 million in 2005 (3). For Vietnam, pork meat production is ofhigh importance. It represents 81% of the total livestock in Antimicrobial susceptibility. The antimicrobial susceptibil- 2005 (11).
