    abstract = {The aim of this present study is to detect thermophilic <I>Campylobacter</I> species in chicken carcasses sold unpackaged in Afyonkarahisar and to confirm <I>C. jejuni</I> isolates by using a PCR test based on the <I>ceuE</I> gene. A total of 210 chicken carcasses were collected from various markets from May till the end of October in 2004. Thermophilic <I>Campylobacter</I> sp. was isolated from 141 (67%) of 210 chicken carcass samples by classical culture method. The identification of 419 thermophilic <I>Campylobacter</I> sp. isolates obtained from chicken carcass samples were; 57.04% (239) <I>C. jejuni</I>, 40.57% (170) <I>C. coli</I> and 2.39% (10) <I>C. lari.</I> PCR method was applied to 101 of 239 <I>C. jejuni</I> isolates obtained from the chicken carcasses (n = 101). According to it 62 (61.38%) of 101 isolates were confirmed by PCR. About 28 (45.16%) of 62 isolates were confirmed to be <I>C. jejuni </I>were detected to be resistant to nalidixic acid.}
