Microbial profile of some ready-to-cook frozen food items sold in Dhaka city, Bangladesh

This study aimed to assess the microbiological quality of 159 animal- and plant-based ready-to-cook (RTC) frozen food items currently popular in Dhaka. Microbiological analyses were carried out to enumerate total aerobic counts of mesophilic bacteria, yeast and mold and to detect some common foodbor...
