The total heterotrophic counts was between 1.10 x 106– 9.70 x 106, the total Staphylococci counts was between 1.10 x 106- 9.40 x 106 and the total Salmonella-Shigella counts was between 1.30 x 107– 7.30 x 106. The identity of isolated organisms was confirmed using biochemical tests and gram staining techniques. The organisms isolated include: Escherichia coli, Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, Salmonella and Shigella SPP. Considering the microbiological criteria for ready to eat food, the study therefore concluded that all kunu aya retailed in yenagoa are considered unsafe for consumption and as such, every individual should prepare theirs at home with clean water and under hygienic condition. ...Preview Download Preview +Other Microbiology project topics and materials you might be interested in»Bacterial analysis of urine polluted environment in federal polytechnic Nekede, Owerri»Isolation and identification of microbes associated with spoilage bread»Microbiological quality of palm kernel fruits»Microbiological evaluation of home made grape juice»Therapeutic potential of Moringa Oleifera leaves»Antibacterial activity of honey on staphylococcus aureusescherichia coli and streptococcus pyogen isolated from wound»Bacteriological monitoring of abattoirs in Ehime Mbano in Imo state»Phytochemical screening and antimicrobial assessment of Spondias Mombin (Ijikara)»Proximate, selected vitamins, and minerals analysis of Moringa Oleifera»Biodeterioration of natural and artifical stone»Isolation and identification of bacterial aerosols bioaerosols dump sites in Yenagoa»The effect of crude avocado and pawpaw leaves extract on kidney function of guinea pigs»Isolation and characterization of fungi associated with the spoilage of corn grown in farms in Rukpokwu community»Microbial examination of raw meat obtained at main abattoir, Offa»Incidence of staphylococcus and salmonella species in Kunuaya retailed in Yenagoa
