ABSTRACT
An analysis of residues from anabolic agents found in commercially available meat and poultry was undertaken in Alexandria, Egypt. This study shows that beef meat samples purchased from government cooperative supermarkets exhibit higher levels of the synthetic growth promoter, trenbolone acetate, than meat from private butchers; however, estrogen levels were much higher in chicken obtained from private growers. A comparison of different cooking methods was conducted on the chicken samples; boiling without skin is recommended to reduce the consumer's intake of hormonal residues
