Abstract:
In Turkey, spicy, typically dry, fermented sausage (soudjouk) is one of the most popular processed meat products. In this study, 42 soudjouk samples were collected from the eight manufacturers in Erzurum, Turkey. These samples were evaluated for aerobic plate count (APC) at 37 and 25°C, psychrotrophic, coliform, Escherichia coli , and coagulase-positive Staphylococcus aureus counts and presence of Salmonella and Shigella spp. Generally, all the samples had very high counts of most of the bacteria enumerated. In two samples of the 42, Shigella spp. was found and one of them was Shigella boydii . None of the samples yielded Salmonella spp.
