In yoghurt only 14 samples (46.67%) contaminated with yeasts and moulds and their counts / gram are ranged from 2.1 x 101 to1.1 x 103with an average count of4.76 x 102/gram. The highest frequency distribution was 6(42.86%) lied within the range of >102. The isolates belong to genera Aspergillus 3 (12.00%), Penicillium 1 (4.00%), Geotrichum 12 (48.00%) and Monilielle 9 (36.00%). In feta cheese only 8 (26.67%) from 30 samples contaminated with yeasts and moulds and counts / gram are ranged from2.4 x 101 to 1.5 x 103with an average count of2.79 x 102/gram. The highest frequency distribution was 4(50%) lied within the range of >102. The isolates belong to genera Aspergillus 2 (13.33%), Penicillium 1 (6.67%), Geotrichum 7 (46.67%) and Monilielle 5(33.33%).
