TI  - Oxytetracycline residues in bovine carcasses slaughtered at Mansoura Abattoir, 
      Egypt.
PG  - S44-7
AB  - Oxytetracycline residues were examined in 600 samples (200 each of muscles, 
      livers and kidneys) collected randomly from bovine carcasses slaughtered at 
      Mansoura abattoir in Dakahlia Province, Egypt. A microbial inhibition test using 
      Bacillus subtilis ATCC- 6633 was employed to screen the obtained samples for 
      antibiotic residues in meat. The results showed that 2% of samples were positive. 
      Oxytetracycline residues exceeded the maximum residue limits (MRLs) in 1.33% of 
      the examined samples. Thus, regulatory authorities should insure proper 
      withdrawal period before slaughtering of the animals (28 days for 
      oxytetracycline). Public health importance was discussed.
