Abstract
A total of 100 random samples of meat products represented by luncheon, frozen minced meat, kofta, and sausage (25 of each) were collected from different supermarket’s shops in Tanta city These products subjected to bacteriological examination as Aerobic Plate Count (APC), Coliform Count, Staph. aureus count and isolation and identification of Salmonellae and E-Coli. The result revealed that minced meat showed relatively higher mean values of Aerobic Plate Count as well as Coliform Count (6.07± 0.1) log CFU/g and (3.1±.1) log CFU/g, respectively than the other products. While, it was the lowest one in Staph aureus count (2.2 ± .07) log CFU/g. Regarding to Salmonellae and E-Coli could be detected in 40% & 32% &12% & 28% & 16% & 24% of minced meat, kofta and sausage, respectively On the other hand, luncheon samples were free from Salmonella and E-coli.
