Abstract

Thirty-two (8%) of 400 samples of locally produced milk products were found to contain Salmonella . Positive samples included ice cream (10.9%), Kishfa (10%), Gaymer (7.5%), cheese (6.6%) and yogurt (1.6%). A total of 15 serotypes were identified from these samples, where Salmonella typhimurium and Salmonella infantis occurred with the highest frequency.
