Abstract

A total of 100 random samples of poultry meat products (25 each of chicken burger, luncheon, nuggets and frankfurter) were collected from supermarkets and groceries of Al-Bohira governorate. The samples were examined microbiologically to estimate their sanitary condition. The mean mesophilic counts were 2.6 x 105, 4.3 x 104, 3.1 x 105 and 1 x 105 in nuggets, luncheon, burger and frankfurter respectively. The mean thermophilic counts were 1x 105, 1.1 x 104, 8 x 104 and 3.6 x 104 respectively. The mean psychrotphic counts were 6.9x104, 6.2x103, 3.9x104 and 1.1x105 respectively and that of enterococci counts were 33.3±5.3, 135±34.5, 145.8±35.5 and 133.8±37.8 in burger, luncheon, nuggets and frankfurter respectively. The mean staphylococci counts were 41.4±12.2, 154.4 ±39.9, 95± 50.3 and 250±120.1. The mean coliform counts were 2.1 x 104, 2.3 x 104, 3.9 x 104 and 6.4 x 103 and that of mould and yeast counts were 1.3 x104, 2.7 x 103, 8.9 x 103 and 3.9 x 103 respectively. The public health hazard of the isolated and identified organisms such as staphylococci, enterococci, E.coli, Citrobacter, Proteus, and mould and yeast, as well as suggestions to increase the shelflife of the products and protect consumers were discussed.
