Title StatementA quantitative analysis on the accumulation of bacteria in street foods
Summary, Etc.This scientific investigatory project aims to determine the rate of microbial growth in street foods particularly pork barbeque, chicken intestines (commonly called as "isaw"), fishballs, and kwekwek (quail eggs coated with flour); to know the amount of bacteria present in these foods; and to be able to compare the microbial growth in the processed foods (fishballs and kwekwek) from the non-processed foods (barbeque and isaw). The result of this project will show us what type of food (processed or non-processed) is safer to eat and will prevent the event of food poisoning caused by eating spoiled street foods. The samples from each type were inoculated 4 hours after the preparation of the samples. The inoculation took place every hour for 5 hours. The number of colony forming units of microorganisms per gram of the food was recorded 48 hours after the last inoculation.  Fishball had the most CFUs and the overall result showed that non-processed foods are safer than processed one. The microbial growth rate was determined. Further studies on the effects of temperature and air pollution on the microbial growth in street foods are suggested
