AB  - Deep-red ground pepper (Isot), a variety of red ground pepper 
  is a special spices belonging to Sanliurfa and consumed both in Sanliurfa and 
  other provinces of Turkey. The aim of this study was to determine the parasitic 
  contamination levels of deep-red ground pepper produced at home. For this purpose, 
  82 samples of homemade Isotin Sanliurfa (Turkey) were collected from manufacturers. 
  The occurrence of parasite eggs and protozoon oocysts in the samples was investigated 
  by microscopic examination. Protozoon oocyst and helminth eggs were detected 
  in four of the 82 Isot samples (4.87%). Three of these samples were identified 
  as protozoan oocysts (3.68%) and one of these samples was identified as helminth 
  eggs (1.21%) More hygienic measures should be taken on in order to prevent parasitic 
  contaminations.
