Spoilage Organisms in Smoked Atlantic Cod ( Gadus morhua ) from Different Sources
This study was designed to establish the microbiological safety and suitability for human consumption of the cold-smoked Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua retailed in Oju-Ore, Sango, Iyana-Iyesi and Oja-Oba markets in Ota, Ogun State, Nigeria. The fish samples were randomly purchased from the four markets...

The fish samples were randomly purchased from the four markets and analysed for Total Viable Count (TVC), Total Coliform Count (TCC), Staphylococcal count and Fungi count using Nutrient agar, Plate count agar (PCA), MacConkey agar, Mannitol salt agar (MSA) and Potato Dextrose Agar. Samples were stored in wire baskets and examined for the presence of bacteria and fungi on day 1, 4, 8, 12 and 16. The highest mean values were TVC, 5.7 X 106 CFU/g; TCC, 6.4 X 104 CFU/g and Staphy.
