| The current study aimed to ensure the chemical and microbiological quality of imported canned meat. Random samples of canned beef, canned beef luncheon and corned beef are imported from different countries were collected from the local market in Fayoum Governorate. Chemical composition (moisture, protein, fat, ash content, carbohydrate and energy value), Quality indices (pH, Total volatile basic nitrogen and Thiobarbituric acid) and Microbiological quality (Aerobic plate counts, Staphylococcus aureus, Thermophilic bacteria and Clostridia count) have been estimated. The moisture content was not in conformity with the Egyptian Organization for standardization (E.O.S 1563/2005) in 50% of the samples, as well as the protein content of all samples not in conformity with the (EOS, 1563/2005). While the only fat content in which all samples were in accordance with the (EOS, 1563/2005). Also, T.V.B.N and T.B.A values for all trademark’s samples passed into the allowance limits. Microbiological analysis revealed the presence of Staphylococcus aureus andClostridia count in 50 and 37.5 % respectively of trademarks samples. | ||||
