Abstract
The microbiological contamination of goat carcasses slaughtered on a slaughter line under controlled conditions and in inadequate facilities was measured by determining the total number of aerobic mesophilic bacteria, Enterobacteriaceae and Salmonella spp. Wet swabs were taken from the carcasses of goats (in slaughterhouses n = 115 and in inadequate facilities n = 80). Test results showed that the total number of aerobic mesophilic bacteria and Enterobacteriaceae were mostly within satisfactory and acceptable categories. Salmonella spp. was not isolated from any of the goat carcasses.
