| description | <b> Aim:</b> It was aimed to evaluate level of contamination of Escherichia
coli in homemade fresh butter in some rural areas
in Kosovo.<p>
<b> Materials and methods:</b> A hundred eighty seven butter
samples were analyzed inoculating diluted volumes in selective
agar plates containing 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl- ß-Dglucuronic
acid (BCIG). The further identification of isolates
was performed using other media and some additional biochemical
tests as well as API 20E strips are used for identification
of E. coli isolates.<p>
<b> Results:</b> This research was carried out in 2014 to evaluate
the number of β-glucuronidase-positive Escherichia coli in
homemade fresh butter samples collected by families in rural
areas of regions; Gjilan and Ferizaj in Kosovo. This analytical
check concluded that 34% (64/187) of fresh butter samples
were contaminated with E. coli. The high number of E. coli
was detected in 22% (20/189) butter samples collected in
rural areas of Ferizaj. In total, 36 out 187 butter samples or
19% showed values of E. coli higher than 5log cfu/g.<p>
<b> Conclusions:</b> Homemade fresh butter produced from fresh
cows milk in rural areas of Kosovo is commonly contaminated
with different kinds of microorganisms as well as by pathogenic
strains of E. coli. The poor hygienic home conditions
in some rural areas in Kosovo have impact in the butter quality
and are associated with the increasing number of E. coli. |
