A total of two hundred samples (100 milk and 50 each of kareish cheese and ice-cream) were collected from different localities in Kafrelsheikh Governorate for detection of some food poisoning bacteria. The results revealed that S.aureus was detected in 13, 14 and 12% with mean counts of 5.8 ×104, 11.9 × 104 and 3.3 × 104. While, E.coli was detected in 11, 14 and 14% with mean counts of 2.8 × 104, 11 × 104 and 3.6× 104 in milk, kareish cheese and ice cream samples, respectively. Salmonella spp. was not detected in any of the examined samples. The results concluded that milk and dairy products may at times suitable for supporting the growth of these organisms and subsequently be responsible for food poisoning. The public health significance of the isolated organisms was discussed.
