Summary

The increase in the number of enterobacteria after 8 days of storage is 5 times more important at 3 than at 0 deg C. The most frequent strains are Escherichia (64.29%), they decrease (to 21.97%) after 8 days of chilling whereas the number of Citrobacter, Enterobacter and Serratia increases. The number of E. coli seems to be a valuable indicator of liver fecal contamination in slaughterhouses.
