| Abstract | ||
| Fourty randoin samples of roquefort cheese including 20 each of local and imported cheese were collected from different localities in Assiut City for isolation and identification of foreign molds as containinants. The obtained results indicated that, twenty-nine species belonging to eight genera were existed in local roquefort cheese samples. Aspergilus found to be the most prevalent genus (55.30%). It was represented mainly by A.flavus (13.90%) and A.niger (27.70%) while in imported samples seventeen species belonging to six genera were identified. 64.72% of the isolates were Aspergillus, 11.76% were Penicillium and 23.52% for the other genera. The public health importance of the isolated mold and the suggestive measures were discussed. | ||
