📌 3 Key Takeaways
🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Two different selective media as Rose-Bengal Chloramphenicol (RBC) Agar and Dichloran Glycerol (DG18) Agar were used for isolation and enumeration of molds from raisin, which is the main economic crop in Turkey and somewhere else.
📊
Key Findings & Data:A total of 129 raisin samples were collected randomly during 1998-2000, of 94 were taken from several field vineyards and 35 from two different raisin packaging houses.

Abstract
Two different selective media as Rose-Bengal Chloramphenicol (RBC) Agar and Dichloran Glycerol (DG18) Agar were used for isolation and enumeration of molds from raisin, which is the main economic crop in Turkey and somewhere else. A total of 129 raisin samples were collected randomly during 1998-2000, of 94 were taken from several field vineyards and 35 from two different raisin packaging houses. Although after microbiological examinations no significant differences were found in relation with their fungal count (p>0,05), there was a marked variation (p
