The water used for cleaning procedures and meat processing in the abattoir must meet drinking water standards. It must be freeof chemical substances or microorganisms in amounts that could cause hazards to health. The bacteriological status of water supply to the Bodija Municipal Abattoir, Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria, was evaluated. Water samples from different sources within and around the abattoir were collected and examined. Average coliform count per 100 ml and confirmatory Escherichia coli counts per 100ml respectively were determined using the multiple tube method. The surface tank had the highest mean coliform count of 173.6 ± 10.9 per 100 ml, while the borehole had the lowest mean count of 17.0 ± 8.1 coliform per 100 ml. The confirmatory Escherichia coliform count per 100 ml was highest for wells (20.8 ± 18.5) and lowest for borehole (1.0 ± 0.07). A significantly higher number of the samples(p |
