...plate count (TPC), total coliforms, fecal coliforms, E. coli, yeasts and moulds. None of the sample was found contaminated with E. coli, contamination of moulds was also negligible. TPC ranged from 1.0x102 to 1.0x104 cfu g-1 except in three cases, whereas total coliform ranged from 0 to 93 except in two cases, where yeast was 0-1600 g-1 and mould upto 250 g-1. All these samples were within permissible limits except one bread...

...s were contaminated with coliforms, followed by cheddar cheese (43.33%) and labneh (23.33%), E. coli could be isolated from milk powder samples, while Salmonella species couldn’t be detected in any of the examined samples. Staphylococci were recovered from most of the examined milk powder (83.33%), cheddar cheese (93.33%), and nearly half of the examined labneh (46.67%) samples, with non-significant differences between that of milk powder and labneh (p=0...

... total solids and remove coliforms, E, coli, and salmonella. Filtered-sanitized water increased 10% water intake, 8% daily gain, and 3% dietary net energy utilization. There was no evidence of infectious diarrhea during the experiment. Non-infectious diarrhea frequency and days on diarrhea were decreased 33% by FILT. Hot carcass weight (HCW) and longissimus muscle area (LM) were increased by FILT. Lambs drank FILT shown lower relative weight of stomach complex...

...probable number (MPN) of coliforms, total staphylococcus count (TSC), and total mold count (TMC). An experimental trial for the improvement of the hygienic status of chicken meat (breast) was done using the bacteriocin, nisin, and gingerol at two concentrations (1%, and 2%). The achieved results indicated an unsatisfactory hygienic status of the retailed chicken meat in the study area, in terms of high microbial counts. Chicken breast collected from rural area...

...probable number (MPN) of coliforms and E. coli and investigation of the prevalence of shiga toxin producing E. coli in kareish cheese collected from grocery stores and street vendors at Mansoura city, Egypt. In addition, molecular confirmation, and detection of shiga toxin coding genes (stx1, and stx2) in the recovered E. coli isolates was done using PCR. Moreover, the inhibitory effects of potassium sorbate (KS) and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis on t...

...probable number (MPN) of coliforms, and MPN of E. coli. In addition, isolation, and identification of shiga toxin producing E. coli were further conducted. An experimental trial was done for improvement of the bacteriological status of the ground beef using diluted acetic acid, citric acid, and their mixture containing equal volumes of both acetic and citric acids at 0.5%, 1%, and 2%. The achieved results in the current study declared high microbial counts for...

... acid bacteria (LAB) and coliforms in the cecum, weight of the bursa fabricius and spleen, levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), number of Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) antibodies, increase in body weight, and feed efficiency. High stocking density has a significant impact on increasing the number of LAB and coliforms in the ileum, reducing the weight of the thymus, and reducing the amount of feed consumed. The lower the crude pr...
