Introduction


1.1  Overview:

Samples collected for surveillance and monitoring purposes are often multi-component products for which there are no microbiological standards or guidelines. Interpreting the significance of the types and levels of microorganisms reported when these foods are tested may therefore be difficult. The purpose of this document is to provide assistance in the interpretation of microbiological analyses of foods where no other microbiological criteria exist.                                                                           

Cream cake is an excellent growth medium for many kinds of microorganisms, as it provides rich nutrient for microorganism, is high in moisture and has neutral pH. The ingredients of cream cake such as chocolate, fruit, milk and butter cream has also perishable food . So, these kinds of ready and semi-ready to food products and cream cake are not shelf stable and pose a potential public health risk if subjected to temperature abuse at any stage of the product's production, storage, distribution and marketing as well as production under unhygienic condition.                                    

These guidelines identify four categories of microbiological quality for ready-to-eat foods ranging from satisfactory to potentially hazardous.   This reflects both the high level of microbiological quality that is achievable for ready-to-eat foods in Gaza  and indicates the level of contamination that is considered to present a significant risk to public health. Follow-up actions appropriate to each category of microbiological quality are also recommended.
The guidelines for the microbiological examination of ready-to-eat foods apply to foods sampled at the point of sale or distribution  to consumers.
