A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE BACTERIAL CONTENT IN THE MEATS OF CHICKEN SLAUGHTERED ACCORDING TO THE ISLAMIC LAW (HALAL) AND THAT WHICH IS NOT SLAUGHTERED ACCORDING TO THE SAME LAW.

Abstract

The results of this study which is the first in the Kirkuk city showed that there are a highbacterial content in the samples which obtained from some organs of chicken which slaughtered randomly noton Islamic law ( Halal) {(muscle, spleen, heart)}, while the results showed appearance 100× 105 cell/ml in theplates which inoculated with blood sample of same chickens. In comparison with same sample of chickenswhich slaughtered according to Islamic law, which did not appeared any bacterial growth in the cultivatedplates except appearance of 60 colony (20 × 105) cell/ gm after 72 hour of incubation of spleen and musclesamples. These last results may be due to contamination during the work and registed in the results topreserve the scientific integrity. From the samples of chickens slaughtered randomly not on Islamic law,different gram positive and gram negative bacterial species were isolated and identified ( Staphylococcus.aureus ( 5) 19.2% , Staphylococcus. albus ( 5) 19.2% , Klebsiella spp. ( 7) 26.9% , E.coli (5) 19.2% ,Pseudomonas aeruginosa (3) 11.5% , Enterobacter spp. (1) 3.8%). The results indicated that the most bacterialisolates possessed multiple antibiotics resistance, in spite of the appearance of pseudomonas aeruginosa inthe muscle and spleen of chickens slaughtered according to Islamic law, this result may be due tocontamination during the work. These results were confirmed due to the same sensitivity results of theisolates to the same antibiotic Ciprofloxacin (CIP) and approximately in same inhibition zone and resistant toother antibiotics which
