Abstract
A grand total of ninety random samples of chicken meat products represented by fresh pane, popcorn and luncheon (30 of each)were collected from different supermarkets and retailers of different sanitation levels in different cities at Gharbia Governorate, Egypt for bacteriological examination The mean values of APC ,Coliform and total Staphylococcal counts (log cfu/g) were7.46 ± 0.51^b, 5.25±0.10^a and 5.10 ± 1.28^a in the examined chicken fresh pane samples, 5.41± 0.35^c, 4.13±1.40^b and 4.73 ± 1.78^b in the examined chicken luncheon samples and 7.10±1.37^a , 5.28±2.25^a and 5.88 ± 1.66^a in the examined chicken pop corn samples, respectively . On the other hand, the percentages of unaccepted samples of fresh pane, luncheon and popcorn were 100%, 83.3% and 86.7% according to the permissible limits stipulated by EOS 1651 (2005) for coliform (not exceed 10²) respectively, with high significant difference between the examined samples (P< 0.05). Moreover, the incidence of coagulase positive S. aureus isolated from chicken products samples fresh pane, luncheon and pop-corn were 10%, 23.3% and 23.3% respectively. The public health importance of the isolated microorganism and the recommended points to prevent or even minimize contamination of chicken meat products with microorganisms were discussed.
