Summary:The microbiological quality and skin appearance of poultry carcasses were determined after acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide spray. Acetic acid at 1% concentrations showed a significant effect(P0.05) effect the microbial load when compared with asample without treatment,26.33x103, 2.61x103,3.70x102,2.63x102and 27.47x103 ,2.71x103,4.41x102,2.74x102 cfu/cm2 respectively. The skin of carcasses treated with H2O2 ,was bleached and bloated.
