The hygienic conditions of the same plant were also investigated. In terms of microbiological quality, no significant differences were determined among the ice-cream types. Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli were not isolated in any of ice-cream samples. The average counts of aerobic mesophil bacteria, coliform and mould-yeast were 8.8x102-2.5x103 cfu/g, 0.3-0.6 MPN/g and
