ABSTRACT
Fifty liver samples [25 of each of camel and buffalo livers] were obtained from several butcher's shops, and subjected to microbiological analysis. The mean values of APC, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus faecalis and Coliform counts were 9 x 10 7, 4 x 10 7, 5 x 10 3, 4 x 10 3, 4 x 10 4, 5 x 10 3 and 2 x 10 3 in camel and buffalo livers, respectively. E. coli, Klebsiella aerogenes, Proteus species and Citrobacter freundii could be isolated in various percentages. Moreover, Clostridium sphenoides, Cl. histolyticum, Cl. tertium and Cl. putrefaciens were the most predominant anaerobes in both liver samples. The significant importance of the counts and the isolated organisms were discussed
