Abstract
A total of 100 random samples of ready- to – eat sandwiches of beef products represented by kofta, liver, shawerma and
sausage products (25 samples of each) were collected from different fast food services in different districts at kaliobia
Governorate to be examined bacteriologically for detection of Salmonellae and Escherichia coli. The perecentages of
Salmonellae in the examined samples of kofta, liver, shawerma and sausage products were 32%, 60%, 8% and 40%,
respectively. The obtained results indicated that the incidence of E. coli was 20%, 8% and 32% and 40% in the examined
kofta, shawerma, sausage and liver samples, respectively
