Abstract | ||||
One Hundered randam samples of different meat products represented by (rice kofta, kobaba, sausage and beef burger) were collected randomly from different supermarkets in Kalyobia governorates to be examined for occurance of B. Cereus & its virulence genes. The incidence of Bacillus Cereus was 60%, 52%, 40% & 36% for rice kofta, kobeba, sausage and beef burger, respectively. Moreover, the results of PCR out of 47 of isolated B. Cereus from the examined samples of meat prouducts were 15(31.91%) for cytk, 7(14.89%) for hblc and cytk & hblc 24(51.6%), respectively. Public Health significance of B. Cereus and its virulence genes and possible sources of meat product contamination as well as some recommendations to improve the quality of meat products were discussed | ||||
