Serviço de inspeção estadual e as principais condenações em carcaças de frango

Abstract

The goal of this report is to present and describe all the developed activities during the supervised curricular internship, specifying activities developed and monitored by the State Inspection Service of the state of Tocantins, from March 7, 2022 to May 16, 2022, at Abatedouro de Aves Frango Americano, in Aguiarnopólis-TO, totaling 390 hours. The internship had supervision of the Veterinarian Doctor Marcela Sousa de Andrade Aquino and academic guidance of Professor Dr. Aline Alberti Morgado. During this period, all stages of the poultry slaughtering flowchart were monitored, starting from the arrival of the chickens at the slaughterhouse until the expedition, with greater emphasis on the area of operation of the State Inspection Service: ante and post mortem inspection activities developed by veterinarians and inspection assistants, Inspection Lines (A, B and C), execution and evaluation of partial and total condemnation spreadsheets. The report quantifies the main partial and total condemnations in the period from March to May of the year 2022. The data on the condemnations were collected from monthly records of the occurrence of the slaughterhouse's convictions. The main condemnations in chicken carcasses were ascites, disgusting appearance, cachexia, septicemia, contamination, arthritis in one or more joints, cannibalism and skin injury. Thus, measures are needed to minimize the occurrence of these problems and increase the technological potential of poultry produced in TO.
