Abstract

This study was performed to evaluate the microbiological quality of the ready-to-eat red meat and chicken donairs from a catering company in Bursa. Samples were examined for total aerobic mesophilic bacteria, coliforms, Escherichia coli (E. coli), enterococci, staphylococci, coagulase positive staphylococci, and Salmonella spp. Temperatures used in this company were found sufficient for donair surface cooking. The collection tray and the personnel hands were determined as the main cross and/or post contamination sources for the donair ready for service.
