The degree of carcass contamination at slaughter of three groups of calves (a total of 36 animals) was studied and the O-antigen types of Escherichia coli found on the carcass surface and in rectal contents were determined. In one-third of the animals E. coli strains found on the surface of a carcass belonged to the same O-serotype as those found in the rectal sample of the same calf. Nearly all the O-serotypes found on the carcasses were also found in the rectal contents of at least one calf, showing that cross-contamination of carcasses had occurred. The E. coli isolated from the rectal contents were all resistant to at least one antibacterial agent.
