Zusammenfassung:The objective of this study was to determine the occurrence of Staphylococcus spp., Escherichia coli , somatic coliphages, F-specific RNA bacteriophages, hepatitis E virus (HEV), and bovine enterovirus (BEV) in fecal and water samples. The occurrence of Staphylococcus spp . was investigated in treated wastewater samples collected from slaughterhouse of Tunisia. Results showed that Staphylococcus spp . were detected in the totality of collected samples with an average mean of 5.44 Log 10 (CFU/100 ml). Regarding fecal indicator bacteria, E. coli was detected in the totality of water samples and was more abundant in Tunisian samples than in samples collected from Romania ( P
