ABSTRAK

 

Kajian ini bertujuan untuk memilih kaedah terbaik daripada sebelas kaedah pengiraan Escherichia coli dalam masakan ayam. Kaedah-kaedah tersebut adalah piring curahan, piring sebaran, piring titisan, PetrifilmTM, tiga jenis pemiringan terus dan empat jenis kaedah bilangan paling mungkin (MPN). Perbandingan kaedah dijalankan mengikut prosedur ISO 16140. Setiap strain E. coli (ATCC 25922, IMR 1/3 107B dan IMR E243) telah diinokulasikan ke dalam lima jenis masakan ayam bagi mendapatkan kepekatan bakteria sehingga 105 cfu/g. Perlakuan haba dibuat pada 55oC selama 4-6 min bagi mewujudkan persekitaran yang seakan-akan sama seperti makanan tersebut dihidangkan sebaik sahaja selepas dimasak. Analisis statistik Regressi Kaedah Kuasa Dua Terkecil (KKDT) dijalankan bagi membandingkan sebelas kaedah pengiraan E. coli. Nilai kecerunan (m) yang signifikan (p < 0.05) pada kesemua Graf KKDT membawa maksud kesemua kaedah adalah serupa daripada segi kejituan, korelasi, dan ketepatan relatif. Oleh itu, penilaian praktikal turut dipertimbangkan bagi menentukan tiga kaedah terbaik bagi pengiraan E. coli dalam masakan ayam. Piring curahan, PetrifilmTM dan piring titisan adalah lebih praktikal berbanding lapan kaedah yang lain.

ABSTRACT

 

The purpose of this study was to select the best from eleven methods for Escherichia coli enumeration in poultry dishes. The methods were pour, spread and drop platig, PetrifilmTM, three types of direct plating and four types of most probable number (MPN) methods. Method comparison was carried out based on ISO 16140 procedure. Each type of E. coli strains (ATCC 25922, IMR 1/3 107B and IMR E243) were inoculated into five types of poultry dishes to obtain 105 cfu/g bacterial concentration. Heat treatment was done at 55oC for 4-6 min to mimic the environment as these foods were served right after cooking. The Ordinary Least-Squares (OLS) Regression statistical analysis was carried out to compare eleven methods for E. coli enumeration. The significance (p<0.05) of gradient value (m) for all OLS Graphs mean that all methods were similar in term of accuracy, correlation and relative accuracy. Thus, practical approaches were also considered in order to select the best from eleven methods for E. coli enumeration in poultry dishes. Pour plating, drop plating and PetrifilmTM methods were more practical than the other eight methods evaluated.
