The results are 41.67% of food samples contained total bacteria (range 2.7 x 104 -3.8 x 105 colonies/gram) exceeding the maximum limit of BPOM. Coliform results showed that 100% of food samples and 66.6% of drinks and snacks samples are exceeded the maximum limit of BPOM requirements (food and snack samples >3 APM/g; drinks > 0 APM/g) and 50% of the samples contained Escherichia coli exceed BPOM standards.
