Material and Methods The study included 24 fish representing grass carp, bighead carp, Siberian sturgeon, and wels catfish. Specimens were collected in winter. Aerobic bacteria, psychrophilic, Enterobacteriaceae , Staphylococcus spp., and E. coli counts were made, and the presence of Salmonella spp., L. monocytogenes , S. aureus , and other coagulase-positive staphylococci was investigated. Results The microbiological analysis showed a similar level of aerobic, psychrophilic, and Staphylococcus spp. contamination of the four fish species. The Enterobacteriaceae count was higher in the muscles of grass carp and bighead carp than S. sturgeon and wels catfish. No pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella spp., E. coli, L. monocytogenes , Staphylococcus aureus , or other coagulase positive staphylococci were found in samples of the examined fish species. Conclusion The fresh fish examined in this study were of good microbiological quality and there was no health risk for consumers.
