The research was aimed at determining the sensitivity and/or resistance of isolated microbes from abattoirs to the various antimicrobial drugs used during food-borne illness caused by the consumption of abattoir-related products (such as meat) and the work-place related disease. The Amansea and Kwata abattoirs were used as study areas. Soil samples, wastewater effluents, swabs from cutting tables, equipments and slaughtered meat samples were aseptically collected from the abattoirs and the microbes were isolated using standard methods. | Antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of microorganisms isolated from abattoirs in Awka Metropolis, Anambra State, Nigeria
