A CASE OF PLAGIARISM (Case No. 05012013)
Professor John J. Maurer from The University of Georgia 244, 5th Avenue, No. 2218 NY 10001, New York USA pointed out a plagiarism in a paper published in International Journal of Poultry Science Volume 8 Number 2, 156-160, 2009.

As per the report of the Ethics Committee, article entitled "Allelotyping PCR for Detection and Screening of Salmonella enterica Serovar Enteritidis and Typhimurium" authored by S. Essam Soliman, C. Kilpatrick, S. Mohamed Ahmed, M. Eman Abouelhassan, R. Nimmanapelli and P.G. Reddy Department of Pathobiology, CVMNAH, Tuskegee University, USA published in International Journal of Poultry Science Volume 8 Number 2, 156-160, 2009, contains substantial sections of text that have been taken verbatim from earlier publication without clear and unambiguous attribution.
International Journal of Poultry Science considers misappropriation of intellectual property and duplication of text from other authors or publications without clear and unambiguous attribution totally unacceptable.
