| Abstract | ||
| Local markets witness a significant demand for various variety of local and imported poultry meat with almost a complete absence of healthy surveillance.The current work was designed to assess possible microbial contamination of such products and therefore 40 different samples (80 swabs)from skin of poultry meat were collected from local markets and examined using three kinds of media, i.e. nutrient agar, Macconkey agar, and blood agar. To detect bacterial growth and Sabauroud- Dextrose agar medium for fungal growth. The results obtained show clearly that all inverstigated samples were contaminated, mainly with Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas and E. coli. Positive growth was also deducted in both nutrient and Macconkey agar at 37 C also in blood agar at 5ْ C for 24-48 hr. However, this study shows another sort of contamination to be due to several fungi such as, Aspergillus Penicillium, and Mucor. | ||
