- Abstract
Meat is one of the livestock commodities that has complete nutritional content, especially protein, where meat protein contains complete amino acids so it is needed by the body. Meat has enormous benefits but meat is also an excellent medium for bacterial growth if handled incorrectly. A meat grinder machine that is not clean can allow cross-contamination during the process of making ground meat. The purpose of this study was to detect coliform bacteria in a meat grinder machine at the Traditional Market of Polewali Mandar Regency. The study of coliform bacteria detection was carried out by planting a suspension of the test material on MacConkey selective media and then continued with identification tests using the sugar test, urea test, citrate test, indole test, and TSIA. The results of the study on 20 samples of leftover meat from a meat grinder machine obtained from the traditional markets of Pekkabata (Machines A and B) and Wonomulyo (Machines C and D), after planting on MacConkey differential media, all samples contained bacterial colony growth. From the results of the biochemical test, it was found that the bacteria were contaminated with Proteus vulgaris, Proteus mirabilis, and Enterobacter agglomerans. The results of the study concluded that there was coliform bacterial contamination in the meat grinding machine at the Traditional Market, Polewali Mandar Regency.
