| Abstract | ||
| This experimental work was carried out at Halieb and El-Shalatan region, where the skins were collected at marketing age of male Abu-Dleek breed of sheep. After slaughtering in E l-Shattein slaughterhouse the skins were preserved using different methods {1- Salt (SA). 2·Dry sea sand (S5), a-sea water (5W) 4·Acacia arabica fruits (M) and 5·Solar (sun) rays (SU)). Each skin was identified. Skins were sent to a tannery for skin processing (tanning) and after that were sent to footwear and leather industry service center (FLI 5C) for evaluating a nd testing 0 f some leather physical properties. From the results encouncerted, it was evident that. with the exception of SW and SU methods. there were very little differences among other methods of preservation with regard to the quality of leather produced from their skins. Skins from all methods with the exception of SW and SU methods are well suited to be processed into clothing leather. The skins produced from S8 and M methods would be investigated in preservation methods and considered as new method of preservation. | ||
