A comparative study on the microbiological parameters related to the hygiene status of two lamb slaughtering and processing facilities with low and high production capacity was performed. The data showed that the total viable count of microorganisms - TVC varied between 4.09 and 6.79 log10 cfu/cm2 on small ruminant carcasses - SR slaughtered at the smaller facility, while in the larger factory, the values varied between 4.32 and 7.20 log10 cfu/cm2. The values for Enterobacteriaceae varied within 1.30 to 3.18 log10 CFU/cm2 for the smaller factory and 1.27 to 6.05 log10 cfu /cm2 for the high capacity slaughterhouse. The results about the presence of E. coli were within the boundaries of 1 to 1.65 log10 cfu /cm2 for the small factory and 1.62 to 2.01 log10 cfu /cm2 for the facility with high capacity. The data about E. coli related to the different parts of a carcass showed a higher extent of contamination in the high capacity factory, with the exception of the outer surface of the chest, where the values were very close. The relationship between the strict application of good production and hygiene practices and results is discussed.
