In most of these samples, aerob total count was found between 10⁷ and 10⁸ kob mL^-1. Coliform count ranked 2nd after the aerob total count. Most of micrococcus and staphylococcus were found at 10⁴-10⁵level. Although, the count of enterococcus was generally between 10⁵ and 10⁶, the count of enterobacter count was generally 10⁶-10⁷. Mold was not isolated from samples. Coliform bacteria level was 10⁷-10⁸ kob mL^-1. However, E. coli was under the detection level in most of the samples while it was 10⁴-10⁵in the rest. On the other hand, Salmonella highly important for food infections was determined in 3% of the carp fish samples. ER -
