Only in 1885 the Kiev governor proposed to enter into the sanitary commission the veterinarian doctor.First veterinary doctor as part of this commission was appointed V. K. Ponomarev. But with the introduction of this post, the sanitary commission of the city did not define the scope of the veterinarian's activities. After dismissal V. K. Ponomarev, on post of veterinarian doctor was appointed P. M. Henevsky.

With the opening of cities slaughterhouses (1888), veterinary sanitation began to occupy a leading place in the activities of veterinarians in Kiev. Already on October 20, 1888  was  made public the "Obligatory Decree about city's slaughterhouses and their uses". These regulations introduced monotonous order in the slaughter case.

In 1899, a special subcommittee, leded by A. K. Stelpchevsky, issued instructions for veterinarians about animal slaughter and veterinary and sanitary examination of  carcasses and products of slaughter.

Veterinary doctors in Kiev carried out veterinary and sanitary supervision not only at slaughterhouses, but also for the quality of milk and milk products, with particular attention paid to the degree of contamination of milk with bacteria and mechanical impurities.
