reminders: • Ante-mortem and post-mortem inspections: - AM 17/03/92, Article 19: "Inspection and control of approved establishments accordance with this decree, as well as ante-mortem and post-mortem inspections must be provided by a veterinary inspector. To ensure such inspections and controls, the veterinary inspector shall be assisted by health technicians and attendants under his authority and responsibility. - Ante-mortem inspection is a veterinary specificity (diagnosis) - Even in cases of emergency, ante-mortem examination must be carried out by the veterinary inspector of the slaughterhouse (AM of 9 June 2000, Article 8) - Post mortem inspection: normal and abnormal carcasses are sorted by technicians and attendants (except emergency slaughter), under the authority of the veterinary - No transfer of responsibility


Reminders: the "hygiene package" • Regulations EC 853/2004 and 854/2004 of 29 April 2004: organization of controls and specific rules applicable to BDOAs - Applicable to 1 January 2006 - Increased accountability of operators - Strengthening of upstream requirements: • Livestock information (livestock register) • Animal health status • Cleanliness of the animals • "animal welfare": good treatment - Information to be transmitted within 24 hours the introduction of animals into the slaughterhouse


Inspection technique Ante-mortem Inspection (Former Formula): - Documents: if absence ==> postponement of slaughter or slaughter and carcass (854/2004) - Animal protection: search for ill-treatment and acts of cruelty - Pathologies: • Research on diseases transmissible to humans and animals • Research into diseases or disturbances of general meat unfit for human consumption • Search for signs indicating the administration of active substances pharmacological • Tired or injured animals - Animals "affected" by a communicable disease or affecting the health of meat: => euthanasia and rendering - Suspect animals: ==> End-of-chain slaughter and detailed examination


Inspection technique • Ante-mortem inspection (hygiene package): - Obligatory, on all animals - Within 24 hours of arrival of the animals at the slaughterhouse, and less than 24 hours before slaughter, and at any time - Search for signs indicating that "the welfare of animals has been compromised " - Search for a condition likely to "harm animal or human health". human health, including zoonoses and diseases on the list of notifiable diseases of the World Health Organization animal health - Full Clinical Inspection of Suspect Animals - Specific requirements for animals slaughtered outside slaughterhouses

Cleanliness of the animals ...


Inspection technique

• Post-mortem inspection: - Uninterrupted supervision of inspection officers - Inspection of all parts of an animal, including blood - Three Times: • Visual inspection • palpation of certain organs • Incision of certain organs and lymph nodes - If cuts are necessary, have them practiced by the owner of the carcass or its representative - SANCTIONS: • Applying the health stamp used in the slaughterhouse • Instructions for further examinations (bacteriology, residues ...) • Input (restriction of use)


Inspection technique

Post-mortem inspection: - Mandatory and systematic research: • Cysticercosis of pigs (Cysticercus cellulosae, Taenia solium) • Cysticercosis of other species (including C. bovis) • Gland of solipeds (Burkholderia mallei) • BSE testing: cattle over 30 months old (48 months soon) • Trichinae of pigs and solipeds • TSEs on sheep and goats (according to economic situation) • Tuberculosis and brucellosis - In a very general way: function of the dominant (species, sex, age, type of production, etc.)


Inspection technique • Cattle over 6 weeks old: - Visual examination: head, throat, tongue, trachea and lungs, pericardium and heart, liver, gastrointestinal tract, spleen, kidneys, uterus, udder, diaphragm, pleura,peritoneum, joints, lymph nodes (n.l.), visible muscle surfaces - Palpation: tongue, lungs, esophagus, liver, liver lymph nodes and pancreatic, stomach and mesenteric lymph nodes, spleen, udder(if necessary) - Incisions: • External massagers (2 incisions) and internal (1 incision), n.l. of the head. Elimination of tonsils • N.l. pulmonary parenchyma, pulmonary parenchyma, trachea and main bronchi • Heart: 1 incision opening the 2 ventricles, passing through the septum • Liver: 2 incisions: palette and base of the caudate lobe • Possibly: n.l. intestinal, kidneys, udder.

Gastrointestinal Spleen Region umbilical and joints - Incisions: • N.l. retropharyngeal; ablation of the tonsils • N.l. pulmonary trachea, main bronchi • Heart: an incision (see cattle) • Liver if necessary • N.l. gastrointestinal tract if necessary • Kidneys and n.l. if necessary • Umbilical region and joints if necessary


• Pigs:

Logic of Inspection

• Why seize (justification)?

- Because it is obligatory (reasons explicitly provided for by the regulations) • See AM. From 17/03/92, Article 31 - Public health objective: toxic products (presence of germs, parasites, substances dangerous for the consumer) - Business Objective: • Reputable commodities: color, odor, shape,consistency… • Insufficient food: composition or content useful principles


Calf liver: malformation


Bovine kidney: malformation


Horse Liver: steatosis


Logic of Inspection • DO NOT MIX UP: ground of seizure and justification of seizure - The reason must be described in precise terms and explicit, without trial of the causes or at the evolutionary stage - The rationale is implicit


Logic of Inspection

• Nature of the abnormal phenomenon: - Traumatic? - Toxic? - Parasite? - Infectious? • Scope of the process: - Injury - Loco-regional effects - General Impacts


Trauma and accidents

• Traumatic injury (injury, fracture, sero-hemorrhagic infiltration, accident…) - Regulatory definition: AM of 9 June 2000, JORF of 15 June 2000, Article 1: • "Injured animal: any animal which presents clinical signs provoked abruptly by trauma or by failure of the surgery or obstetric surgery, while in a good state of health before trauma or intervention " • "Sick animal: any animal which exhibits manifest pathological signs with serious repercussions on the general condition other than those defined in paragraph preceded or appeared in different circumstances ". - An "accident" dating back more than TWO DAYS, or the absence of commemorates, causes the systematic euthanasia of the animal.


Veal shank: fracture Very Local Infiltration Absence of repercussion: Very recent lesion (per-mortem) => partial input


Bovine leg: fracture Importance of haemorrhagic lesions, presence of fibrin

and edema: recent lesion (transport)


Bovine cutting: sero-haemorrhagic infiltration Coagulated blood, fibrin and edema diffusing between the planes muscle: advanced lesion (a few days)


Bovine legs: infiltration sero-haemorrhagic Fibrin and blood the surface of the carcass external contusion Normal-looking muscle Recent injury


Pelvic cow channel: sero-haemorrhagic infiltration Probable origin: accident on the part


Cow back; sero-hemorrhagic infiltration origin: accident on the part Very dark, overworked meat


Mare carcass: Sero-hemorrhagic nfiltration of the pelvic pathway. Quasi-normal aspect of the carcass but total seizure: unfavorable bacteriological examination


Carcasses of lambs: Sero-hemorrhagic infiltrations extensive, due to the attack herd by stray dogs Total entry


Pork thigh: Fracture of the femur. Sero-hemorrhagic infiltration. Injury where predominates the blood: recent character


Generalized processes

• Acute poisoning or intoxination: - Ingestion or in situ production of toxic(Enterotoxicosis ...) - Liver and kidney damage: degeneration - Sometimes hemolytic jaundice
