The raw FS6 samples had counts below allowable limits for B.
cereus, total and thermo-tolerant coliforms, sulphite-reducing
clostridia, coagulase-positive staphylococci, yeasts and molds, and
Salmonella sp was absent, indicating adequate sanitary quality of
raw materials. These data were compliant with the Good
Manufacturing Practices before, during and after processing; thus,
the FS6 samples were microbiologically fit for a consumption
product in accordance with current health legislation in Brasil
(2001).
