The study of atypical mycobacteria, especially of those that compose the M. avium complex (MAC), is growing in function of their association with different pathologies, mainly in immunocompromised individuais. Swine can act as reservoirs of these bacteria and the exam of swine of an area allow evaluating the epidemic situation of mycobacteriosis infection in the human and animal population. Seventy-three swine slaughtered without the due sanitary inspection were examined. lt was isolated 21 samples, being seven samples of fast growth, six of them belonging to the MAC and one Mycobacterium scrofulaceum. We also identified 14 fast-growing atypical mycobacteria classified in M. flavescens (4 samples), M. chitae (3 samples), M. peregrinum(2 samples) M. fortuitum (2 samples) and M. diernhoferi (1 sample). We considered the percentage of isolation quite high, especially considering that those animais are consumed without any species of sanitary inspection. This way, we considered that the animais originating from clandestina slaughtering represent important risk of environmental contamination and of the human population exposed to mycobacteria in general and especially to the MAC.
