Microbiology Analysis in Foods
Today, the research of health and ecological questions in accordance with economic and ethical values has come to the fore. As a result of this, it has become very important to conduct researches and analyzes on the material structure of drinking water, breathing air, used rivers, seas, lakes, soil, and edible foods and interpreting the results.Microbiological analyzes come at the beginning of these analyzes. It is necessary to carry out microbiology tests, especially in foods, to protect the shelf life and nutritional values of foods, especially consumer health.
Within the scope of microbiological analysis, many different analyzes are performed. A few of them can be counted as follows:
• Number of aerobic colonies
• e.coli count in solid media
• Coliform count in solid media
• Enterobacteriaceae count
• Yeast-mold count
• Search for Listeria monocytogenes
• Salmonella spp. search
• Searching for E.coli O157h7
• Bacillus cereus count
• Search for Cronobacter Sakazakii
• Rope sport count
• Commercial sterility control in cans
• Search for thermophilic campylobacter
• Vibrio spp. (V.parahaemolyticus and V.cholerae)
• E.coli count by Ems method
• Staphylococcal enterotoxin determination
• Salmonella spp. with the rapid method. search
• Clostridium perfiringens (sulfide-reducing anaerobic bacteria) count
• Coagulase positive staphylococci (s.aureus et al.) count additive analyzes
