This study was designed to monitor antibiotic residues in tissues of poultry from Khartoum state. A total of 360 tissue samples, (muscle, liver and kidney) were collected randomly from the market in Omdurman, Khartoum and Bhari localities. The samples were taken in summer, autumn and winter seasons (each season 120 samples). One plate test was used to detect the inhibition zone of the bacillus sibitilues. The result revealed that 52 (14.4%) samples were positive after screening and 308 (85.6%) were negative. Muscle tissue showed high percentage (18.8%) than liver and kidney (15.0%). The positive samples obtained from Omdurman, Khartoum and Bhari were 20 (16.6%), 18 (15.0%), 14 (11.6%) respectively. The positive samples in summer were higher (35.8%) than autumn (10.8%) and winter (6.6%). The importance of this study is to develop monitoring system for controlling of antibiotic residues in poultry industries to save human health and to minimize drug resistance.
