Abstract
In order to monitoring the chicken meat hygiene, 165 chicken samples were tested for contamination agents such as the total bacterial counts, coliform bacterial counts and falling bacterial counts. The prevalence of level on number of standard plate count(SPC), total bacterial counts in less than 10$^3$cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 10$^3$∼10$^4$cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 10$^4$∼10$\^$5/cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$ were 30 samples (18.2%), 98 samples(59.4%) and 37 samples(22.4%), respectively. The coliform bacterial counts in less than 10$^2$cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$, 10$^2$∼10$^3$cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 10$^3$∼10$^4$cfu/$\textrm{cm}^2$ were 7 samples(4.2%), 66 samples (40.0%), 92 samples(55.8%), respectively. The falling bacterial counts in plants were higher 9.1, in summer 8.4, in fall 7.2 in spring and 6.7 in winter decreased.
