摘要:The present study was conducted by the effectiveness of tejpata leaves extract on dried control & experimental kachki fish. The microbiological parameters have been measured by application of standard plate count (cfu/g), total coliform (MPN/g), total Fungi (cfu/g), E.coli (MPN/g), Salmonella/25g, S. aureus (cfu/g) during the study period. Simultaneously the biochemical composition has been also determined. Before use of tejpata leaves extract, control & experimental kachki contained total coliform bacteria 110 MPN/g & >240 MPN/g. After using of extract, total coliform bacteria were decreased 23 & 46 MPN/g. In addition, before using extract control kachki & experimental kachki contained total Fungi 4.9 × 102 cfu/g & 3.8 × 102 cfu/g. Total Fungi were decreased after using extract that is 40 cfu/g & 100 cfu/g. In the mean time, another microbiological parameter E. coli (MPN/g), Salmonella /25g, S. aureus were also determined in both two treatments. Both of the treatments, all of them are absent. it may be concluded that tejpata leaves extract constitute a feasible treatment option for use in dried fish due to their natural antimicrobials, easy availability in tropical countries and low cost to the consumer.
