Detection of Patho-toxicogenic Microorganisms in the Variety Meats of Awassi-Sheep Carcasses


Abstract in English

This study was carried out to detect the presence of aero-mesophyllic microorganisms and the patho-toxicogenic microorganisms in the consumed variety meats of Awassi-sheep carcasses. Surface cut samples of the tested organs with ١٢ cm٢ and ٢ mm in thickness, were taken immediately from animals slaughtered in the slaughterhouse or in the commercial public market, where these consumable variety meats are sold.
