Abstract
In Mali, poultry farming is a valuable source of income for the population. With huge production potential, the conditions necessary to achieve the quality and safety of poultry products must be in place. This study, conducted between February 2017and May2018 had the objective of assessing the bacteriological prevalence of salmonella in eggs and poultry carcasses slaughtered in the district of Bamako. It focused on analyzing carcasses384 and112 eggs collected from poultry at markets and slaughterhouses. The individual samples were first sown on medium preenrichment and on enrichment media followed by isolation of the bacteria on selective media and identification by biochemical tests. Work has established a global prevalence of bacteriological 12, 90%which varied depending on the type of poultry forhens14.91% against10.88%guinea fowl, the nature of the sample (eggs (09, 82%) and carcasses (13.80%) and the sampling site (the more was observed at Niamakoro monitoring Boulkassoumbougou and Hamdallaye).

Summary
Since many years Salmonella is the major cause of the human digestive tract infections associated with the consumption of food of animal origin. Among these products, poultry meat and eggs are heavily involved. The World Health Organization (WHO) [13] reports nearly 17million annual cases of typhoid fever 600000 deaths, Fofana [1] according to the source, contamination of food is involved in 90% of cases of typhoid fever [14]. The meat contamination by Salmonella is a public health problem [16, 10] and poultry products are often regarded as the cause of certain epidemics [2, 17].
