1.1 AIM AND OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY
To evaluate he
microbial organisms of garri in Ogbete market. Ot characterize for
microbial organism of Garri if any to relate the above to personnel
hygiene and environmental hygiene.
1.3 STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
The sources of contamination many include:
1. High moisture content of Garri before storage enhances growth of mould.
2. Transportation during rainy reason caused wetness of the jut bag which brought about mould growth.
3.
Seller probably a pathogen carrier of any classification. Some sellers
have some infection which are contagious and can contaminate the Garri
on sale
4. Open air exposure and duration of sale
past production. The microbial load in the air can raise above toxic
level became of some air borne organism and if Garri is kept in such
environemnt it will be contaminated.
5. Storage for
longtime may enhance deterioration. Keeping Garri in storage room for
longtime will affect the nature of the Garri.
1.4 HYPOTHESIS
HO
the Garri on sale at Ogbete market have no microbial lead Hi The
Garri on sale at Ogbete market have some bacterial load. 15
SIGNIFICANCE OF STUDY
This study is based on the fact
that Garri which is the staple food of man may caused a lot of harm to
his life. This is due to the unhygienic condition of the environemnt
during processingg, storage and further exposure to the market in which
Garri is sold. These microbes can leads to food poisoning and other
intoxication (ailment) which can lead to loss of man power and loss of
life. Therefore this work is to stem down ugly trend which may even
affect our socioeconomic life by educating the people that are involved
inteh processing, storage and selling of Garri about personnel hygiene
on the product and how it can be store.

ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]In the work, samples of Garri obtained from Ogbete market were evaluated for microbial contamination. Four sample of Garri from different sources of supple were collected from Ogbete main market Enugu Okwo, Nkalagu, Emene, and Abakaliki respectively. The sample were extracted using equal volume of sterile distilled water and serially diluted appropriately and the cultured for the growth of microben. The growth were further suspected to biochemical tests, characterization for confirmatory d ... Continue reading---
