Abstract
By the end of the XIX century Russian Empire had no clear system of veterinary and sanitary control in the slaughterhouse business. The problem of sanitary supervision was complex. On the one hand, slaughterhouses were in dire need of an increase in the staff of veterinarians, and on the other hand, the development of the system of measures for sanitary supervision in slaughterhouse business was required. Modernization of the sphere under consideration was carried out at the state and regional levels. Special attention was paid to slaughterhouses located in large cities of Russia, as they posed a threat of the spread of infectious diseases not only among animals, but also among the urban population. In this study, based on a set of archival materials, clerical, legislative and journalistic sources, the author analyzes veterinary and sanitary supervision in the slaughterhouse business at all stages: from unloading cattle at railway stations to veterinary inspection of carcasses after slaughter. Special attention is paid to slaughtering in St. Petersburg.
Keywords
