In this study, 50 rump samples of raw beef obtained from local Korean supermarkets were analyzed to survey microbial distributions. As results, mesophilic microorganisms ranged from $(1.4{\pm}0.01){\times}10^2$ to $(1.6{\pm}0.05){\times}10^5\;CFU/g$, and total coliforms ranged from 0 to $(1.3{\pm}0.04){\times}10^4\;CFU/g$. Major foodborne pathogens, including Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli O157:H7, and Salmonella spp., were not found among the samples. However, Staphylococcus aureus was isolated with 4% frequency. Other isolated microorganisms included Enterobacter amnigenus (4%), Enterobacter cloacae (24%), E. coli (24%), Listeria innocua (8%), Staphylococcus saprophyticus (56%), Staphylococcus xylosus (10%), and Staphylococcus warneri (8%).
