Abstract
The misuse of antibiotics and lack of respect to withdrawal time result in presence of antibiotic residues in meat which is considered as a major problem facing hygienists so prevention of residues in meat is a top of priority of the public health authorities. So the present study was performed to determine the presence of antibiotic residues in camel meat samples (slaughtered in Sharkia Governorate) I) Detection of antibiotic residues in camel meat in addition to the presence of some heavy metals:- 150 camel meat samples (liver, muscle and kidney) were examined microbiologically for antibiotic residues. Results showed that absence of antibiotic residues in all examined samples. II) Detection of heavy metal residues in meat: The term (heavy metals) is often used to describe a toxic element. In the chemical sense, the term refers to detection of metal impurities in foods and food chemicals by certain precipitation reactions. Heavy metals may arise from natural geological sources or human activities (industrial, mining and agricultural). The vast majority of toxic metals fall into the category of environmental contaminants and produce sever disability in humans. So this study was performed to determine the presence of heavy metal residues in different animal species (camel, cattle and buffalo).
