Microbial Quality Of Soymilk Sold In Umuahia Metropolis
ABSTRACT
The microbial quality of soymilk was studied, the microbial
counts for bacteria, coliform and moulds were 1.8 x 105x 10 5 cfu/ml,
1.2 x 105 3.0 x 106 cfu/ml and 1.2 x 10 to 6.0 x 106
cfu/ml respectively. Escherichia coil and staphylococcus aureus was detected in
all the samples. Other bacteria includes Lactobacillu, klebsiella and bacillur
species. The fungal isolates were mainly Aspergillus species and PenicillIium
species. The microbial isolation detected, reflected poor hygienic standard of
production, constituting a public health hazard among the populace. The
proximate analyses of the samples were also determined. Soymilk production
requires proper monitoring and quality control measures.
