“…Among 31 species of staphylococci currently recognized, 15 are potentially pathogenic and It can causes a wide range of conditions in humans and animals, from mild skin infections to life-threatening bacteremia [2]. Staphylococcus aureus can also causes abscess in deep organs, by producing a toxin mediated diseases, self-limiting skin infections to life-threatening pneumonia, catheter-associated bacteremia, osteomyelitis, endocarditis, septicemia, Foodborne-illness and toxic shock syndrome (TSS) among other infections [3,4]. Meat is one of the animal product origins that contains high source of protein and vitamins for human being, again meat has high water content and rich in minerals and other nutrients which are suitable for the of the most challenging situations to public health across the world.…”

development of microorganisms. Due to its chemical composition and biological characteristics, meats are highly perishable foods providing a good source of nutrients for the growth of different microbial, that can leads infection in humans and also can lead to economic loss due to spoilage [5].Staphylococcal food intoxication is happen due to the consumption of staphylococcal enterotoxins that preformed in the food. The main clinical manifestation of Staphylococcal food poisoning is vomiting, sudden onset of nausea, abdominal cramps and diarrhea. This condition is common in developing countries, because poor hygienic practices and low level of awareness. The staphylococcal enterotoxins are highly heat stable and are thought to be more heat resistant in food stuffs than in a laboratory culture medium. Due to this reason, even though we heating at normal cooking temperature, the bacteria may be killed but the toxins remain active. About half strains of staphylococcal strain are able to produce enterotoxins associated with food poisoning. Because of this condition enterotoxins producing Staphylococcus aureus are most dangerous and harmful for the human health [6]. Currently, Antimicrobial resistance is one
