ABSTRACT

The microbiological assessment of Garri, sold in two different markets in Benin City metropolis, was carried out using the pour plate technique. The mean total count ranged from 15.0 to 29.4 × 104 cfu/g in Oba market and Santana market respectively. A total of six organisms were identified in Santana Market samples while a total of ten probable organisms were identified from Oba market sample, using their morphological characteristics on Nutrient Agar plate. The use of hygienic packaging by producers and retailers in Benin City, is highly recommended to ensure food safety and consumer protection.
