Abstract | ||||
One hundred samples of Minced meat, beef burger, Sausage, Basterma and Luncheon (20 samples each) collected from different shops in Cairo and Giza were examined for the presence of Salmonellae, EPEC, Staph aureus, Yersinia enterocolitica and Listeria monocytogenes. Antibiotic sensitivity to the isolated organisms was tested. Salmonellae were detected in both minced meat and sausage with 5% for each whereas, EPEC were detected in beef burger and sausage with 5% and 10% respectively. Staph aureus was detected in all types of samples examined with different percentages. Neither Y. enterocolitica nor L. monocytogenes could be detected. The public health importance of the studied microorganisms were discussed. | ||||
