Abstract:

Consuming fresh vegetables is crucial for maintaining good health, yet it's important to ensure their safety. Bacteria present on these vegetables can cause illness, underscoring the necessity for vigilance throughout the entire process from cultivation to consumption. This study has identified a significantly elevated prevalence of microorganisms in raw vegetables, primarily attributable to their consumption in an unprocessed state. The overarching objectives of this research encompassed the evaluation of microbiological contamination levels in raw vegetables, the isolation and characterisati

This study assessed the microbiological evaluation of environmental contamination of mostly consumed fruits and vegetables by intestinal parasites and enteric bacteria in three major markets (Waaso, Aarada and Akande) Ogbomoso, Oyo State Nigeria. A total of 5 fruits and 5 vegetables commonly consumed by dwellers of these communities were randomly purchased from the three markets. They were washed, and examined for microbial and parasitic organisms. Of the 150 samples of fruits and vegetables that were collected, processed and examined, 83 (55.3%) of them were contaminated with intestinal paras

Market-sold fresh vegetables are subjected to a variety of contaminants or pollutants. The proliferation of microorganisms, like bacteria, in food is caused by growth-promoting environmental conditions.

Although vegetables are considered to be an essential part of a healthy diet, studies have shown that they can also represent a hazard for human health as they are usually eaten raw and receive minimal treatment.

There is a colossal amount of data available on fresh produce worldwide; however, limited data are available regarding the microbiological quality of ulam in Malaysia.
