Abstract

Howard's mold count were made in 64 commercial samples of tomato puree from four manufacturers. Statistical analysis of the results showed that some of the products examined were obeying the maximal allowance of 40% mold positive fields established by the international requirements. Other samples ccntained rotten fruits and thus gave higher counts. The need of the food industry maintarning a quality control C:epartment is stressed.
