The microbiological quality of fresh beef sausages collected from   different Tripoli regions was investigated. Thus, one hundred samples were   analyzed microbiologically. The results showed that all samples were   highly contaminated with bacteria. The mean of total plate count for (Al   margaz) sausage sample values for all regions covered by the study was   2.5 x 108 CFU/g Their averages were from 7 x 104 to7.5 x 109CFU/g with   no significant differences at level (P< 0.05) between the regions of study.  The general means of most probable number of Coliforms for all regions   of study was 1.4x103 Cell/g and ranging from 1.6 x 102 to 2.4 x 103Cell/g  there were significantly differences at level (P< 0.01). The percentage of   Escherichia coli that contaminated and was isolated from the sausage   samples in Tripoli city butchers, were 81%, with no significant differences   at level (P< 0.01) between regions of study. The percentage of E. coli   0157:H7 that contaminated and isolated, from the sausage samples   collected from meat shops in Tripoli were 48% with no significant   differences at level (P< 0.05) between all regions of study
