Investigation of the incidence of pseudomonas sp. in foods

In this study, 100 different water and food samples collected from different sales point in distrinct of Izmir, were examined for the presence of Pseudomonas spp, in order to determine the incidence in foods. Pseudomonas species were isolated from 21 (7 minced beef, 11 milk, 2 chicken, 1 anchovy) of the samples and 8 of the isolates were identified as P. aeruginosa.
