Antimicrobial Susceptibility Pattern Of Microorganisms Isolated From Slaughter House
ABSTRACT
Soil and water, knife, wall, hand table swab samples were collected from Ubakala Abattoir situated in Umuahia, Abia State. The water samples collected for this purpose were tap water and wastewater from different sites of abattoir and the gutter where the workers dispose the waste water. Soil samples were collected from the sites where they dump the solid waste. The bacteria isolated from the collected samples were Bacillus sp., Pseudomonas sp., Escherichia coli, Shigella., Staphylococcus aureus., Salmonella sp. and Klebsiella sp. The percentage occurrence showed that Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella showed highest prevalence 3(80%) respectively followed by Shigella 6 (60%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa 3 (30%), Klebsiella 3 (30%) while Bacillus 2(20%) showed the least the occurrence. Susceptibility test of some of the isolates revealed that most of the isolates are resistant to almost all the antibiotics tested but Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus were more sensitive to the tested antimicrobial drugs.
