From November 2010 to March 2012, a total of 7,000 shell eggs (350 pooled samples of 20 eggs each) were randomly collected, 1,000 from an organic farm and 6,000 from 3 conventional farms in South Korea.

To isolate Salmonella from egg contents, shell eggs were prepared according to the BAM protocol (US Food and Drug Administration, 2012). Eggs were cracked aseptically and their contents combined in pools of 20 eggs for a total of 350 bulk pools, 50 pools from organic and 300 from conventional farms.
