Summary

Significant differences (P not higher than 0.05) in aerobic, psychrotrophic, total coliform, E. coli, and S. aureus counts due to temperature effects during production and variations in processing protocols were observed. E. coli and S. aureus counts were significantly different during the four seasons. E. coli and S. aureus counts were high during summer and low during winter weather. There was a significant difference in aerobic, psychrotrophic, and total coliform counts among the three processors during warm weather; however, these differences were significantly reduced in cold weather.
