Abstract

     This research aimed to study the presence of mold from dried Rebon shrimp sold at the Jargaria market in Dobo City, Maluku. The method used in this research was the descriptive method. The obtained samples of dried Rebon shrimp (Acetes sp.) were collected from Jargaria Market, Dobo City. Four samples (A1, A2, A3, and A4) were taken from four different traders, and then TPC analysis, mold analysis, water content, and salt content were carried out. The results of the research showed that samples of dried Rebon shrimp from the Jargaria market in Dobo City contained mold microorganisms, including Aspergillus sp.Fusarium sp.Penicillium sp., and Mucor sp. The highest mold colony count was found in sample A1 (2.0 × 10² CFU/g), and the highest bacterial colony count was also recorded in sample A1 (6.1 × 10² CFU/g). Additionally, the highest moisture content was observed in sample A2 (19.05%), while the highest salt content was detected in sample A4 (33.31%). The presence of these microorganisms was determined through a structured analysis involving total plate count (TPC), mold identification, moisture content measurement, and salt content determination. These analytical approaches provided a comprehensive understanding of microbial contamination in dried Rebon shrimp, emphasizing the importance of proper processing, storage, and hygiene to minimize mold and bacterial contamination.
