Abstract:

In this investigation a total of 570 bacterial isolates were obtained from 450 beef carcass swab samples collected from different slaughter houses of Khartoum State. According to the cultural characteristics, bacterial morphology and biochemical reactions the identified bacteria were: Escherichia coli (32.3%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (27.2%), Proteus spp (21.2%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (19.3%) respectively. E.coli represented the predominant bacteria (32.3%) isolated from swab of beef carcass compared to other bacteria Klebsiella pneumoniae (27.2%), Proteus spp (21.2%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (19.3%). The percentage of E.coli isolated from slaughterhouses of Omdurman locality is 65%, Khartoum 10% and Bahri 25% respectively. The E. coli represents the predominant Bacterial spp isolated from slaughterhouses of Omdurman locality compared to other localities of Khartoum state. Proteus spp also recorded a numerical increase in Omdurman, similar to E. coli but with lowest percentage of it followed by Klebsiella spp and Pseudomonas spp respectively.
