Abstract
This study aims to assess the microbial quality and antimicrobial resistance of bacteria
isolated from Beni-Guil lamb carcasses. 103 samples were used for the study. The mean
values obtained for microbial quality were 4.65, 3.07, 1.26, 0.99 and 0.69 (log10
CFU/cm2
), respectively for total aerobic Flora counts, Enterobacteriaceae, fecal
coliform, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.70% of tested Escherichia coli
strains were resistant to gentamicin and ciprofloxacin, as for Staphylococcus aureus,
100% of strains tested were resistant to ciprofloxacin and sensitive to erythromycin.
Regarding gentamicin and benzylpenicillin, 70 % and 60% of Staphylococcus aureus
strains were resistant, respectively.
