| Abstract | ||||
| Mechanically deboned poultry meat is considered one of the most important nutrients due to their content of high-quality protein and some important elements such as selenium and iron. Therefore, the bacteriological qualities of some mechanically deboned chicken meat products sold in Ismailia city were investigated. A total of 100 minced chicken meat and chicken burger samples were subjected to be bacteriological analyzed. All samples of minced meat and chicken burger were positive (100%) for the presence of total psychrophilic count, and enterobacteriaceae, meanwhile it was positive for the presence of E. coli by 60% and 24% of minced meat and chicken burger respectively, The mean value of total psychrophilic count, enterobacteriaceae and E. coli in minced meat samples were 8.9 x 10⁵, 5.6 x 10⁵and8.5 x 10²cfu/g. While, the mean value of total psychrophilic count, enterobacteriaceae and E. coli were 1.3 x 10⁶, 6.8 x 10⁴ and 3 x 10²cfu/g for chicken burger samples. All samples were negative from hazards of salmonella. Some of mechanically deboned chicken meat products traded at Ismailia markets was unfit for human consumption due to exceed the permissible limits set by Egyptian standard | ||||
