Itik termasuk jenis unggas yang menjadi sumber penting dari patogen foodborme disease. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk isolasi dan identifikasi Shigella sp. pada kloaka itik. Penelitian dilakukan dengan pendekatan cross sectional study yang dikerjakan sesuai Carter (1987). Sampel diambil pada swab kloaka dari 15 ekor itik yang mengalami gejala diare. Data hasil penelitian dianalisis secara deskriptif, ditampilkan dalam bentuk tabel dan gambar. Hasil penelitian dari 15 isolat sampel didapatkan 6 sampel (40%) menunjukkan hasil positif dan 7 sampel (60%) menunjukkan hasil negatif Shigella sp. Hasil positif dapat diidentifikasi 2 sampel Shigella dysenteriae, 1 sampel Shigella sonnei, dan 3 sampel Shigella flexneri. Oleh karena itu dapat disimpulkan bahwa hasil isolasi dan identifikasi Shigella sp. pada kloaka itik ditemukan spesies S. dysenteriae, S. sonnei, dan S. flexneri.

Ducks are a type of poultry that are an important source of foodborne disease pathogens. The purpose of this study was to isolate and identify Shigella sp. in the duck cloaca. The research was conducted with a cross sectional study approach which was carried out according to Carter (1987). Samples were taken on a cloacal swab from 15 ducks with diarrhea symptoms. The research data were analyzed descriptively, displayed in the from of tables and figures. The results of the 15 sample isolates showed that 6 samples (40%) showed positive results and 7 samples (60%) showed negative results of Shigella sp. Positive results can be identified 2 samples of Shigella dysenteriae, 1 samples of Shigella sonnei, and 3 samples of Shigella flexneri. Therefore, it can be concluded that the result of the isolation and identification of S. dysenteriae, S. sonnei, and S. flexneri.
