A study on "Microbiological Evaluation of Hotdog sold in Indang Public Market" was conducted to determine the microbial flora of hotdog. It specifically aimed to compare the average spore and bacterial counts in hotdog samples during different sampling time and to identify the potential bacterial pathogens present on different brands of hotdogs. Hotdog samples from Indang Public Market had different microbial loads. Sample V yielded the highest load for total plate count (12.28 x 107 cfu/g) Sample S had the highest number of Bacillus cereus with the count of 32.5 x 105 cfu/g. For spore count, Sample V had the highest count of 5.38 x 104 cfu/g. A total of 254 bacterial isolates were obtained during the whole sampling period. These isolates were subjected to cultural, morphological, and physiological tests to determine their identity. They were identified as Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Salmonella choleraesuis, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter aerogenes, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Proteus penneri, Proteus mirabilis, Shigella sonnei and dysenteriae.
