The detection of foodborne pathogens was analyzed in food samples with different categories and sources. Results: Foodborne pathogens were detected in 332 out of 1 176 market-sold food samples, with a detection rate of 28.23%, and the detection rates of V. parahaemolyticus, Enterobacter sakazakii, non-O1/non-O139 V. cholerae, Y. enterocolitica, Vibrio vulnificus, Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes were 39.47%, 36.92%, 35.48%, 34.09%, 13.85%, 12.26%, 8.58%, 6.65% and 2.53%. The detection rates of foodborne pathogens were 38.36%, 24.90%, 15.48%, 11.90%, 5.68%, 5.56%, 4.48%, 1.67%, 1.25% and 0.81% in aquatic food and its products, meat and meat products, local specialty food, catering food, flavoring, foods for special dietary uses, milk and milk products, egg and egg products, cooked food and other food, respectively, while foodborne pathogens were not detected in frozen drinks.
