Microbial Flora Of Frozen Chicken Parts Sold In Umuahia Metropolis.
ABSTRACT
Thirty samples of four different
parts of chicken varieties were analyzed to determine their microbial flora;
the samples were collected from cold rooms, local market and super markets. All
the chicken parts examined (Gizzard, Wings, Legs and Laps) were contaminated.
The isolates include Staphylococcus, Escherichia spp., Pseudomonas, Salmonella
spp, Aspergillus and Penicillium spp. Samples from supermarkets for all the
chicken parts produced 1.3x10' — 3.2x102cfu/g, those from local markets gave a
range of 1.2x102 — 9.3x103cfu/g and those from cold rooms gave a range of
1.lxlO' — 1.5x103These findings suggest that most of the frozen chicken parts
stored in the open market may constitute sources of bacterial food poisoning
and consequently health hazard.
