Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate histological, microbiological and serological quality in meatball consumed in Istanbul. For this purpose, a total of 75 samples of meatball were obtained from the different fast-food and supermarkets in the Asian side of Istanbul. In the preparation of histological sections there was found little and very little of offal in 4 (5.4%) and 2 (2.7%) samples, respectively. The means of total aerobic count, coliforms, E. coli, coagulase-positive staphylococci, yeast and mold in meatball were found 5.6x105, 5.2x103, 4.3x101, 3.2x103, 2.6x104 ve 9.6x104 kob/g, respectively. Sulfide reducing anaerobic bacteria and Salmonella were found positive of 9 (%12) and 4 (%5.4) in meatball samples. As a results, it was concluded that meatball offered to consumers in the Asian side of Istanbul was of low-quality histological and microbiological, whereas it was approved serological.
Özet
Bu çalışma, İstanbul’da tüketime sunulan hazır köftelerin histolojik, mikrobiyolojik ve serolojik kalitesinin saptanması amacıyla planlandı. Bu amaçla İstanbul Anadolu yakasındaki Fast-Food ve süpermarketlerden 75 hazır köfte örneği toplandı. Histolojik kesitlerden hazırlanan preparatlarda örneklerin 4 (%5.4)’ ünde az ve 2 (%2.7)’ sinde çok az miktarda yenmeyen dokuya rastlandı. Mikrobiyolojik analizler sonucunda toplam aerobik mezofilik genel canlı, koliform, Escherichia coli, Koagulaz pozitif Staphylococcus aureus, maya ve küf sayısı sırasıyla 5.6x105, 5.2x103, 4.3x101, 3.2x103, 2.6x104 ve 9.6x104 kob/g olarak tespit edildi. Numunelerin 9 (%12)’ unda sülfit indirgeyen anaerob bakteri ve 4 (%5.4)’ ünde salmonella pozitif bulundu. İncelenen örneklerde at ve domuz etine rastlanmadı. Sonuç olarak, İstanbul’un Anadolu yakasında tüketime sunulan köftelerin histolojik ve mikrobiyolojik olarak istenen kalitede olmadığı, serolojik olarak ise uygun oldugu saptandı.
