Keywords:
Coconut Ice, Coliform Bacteria, Fecal Coli Bacteria.Abstract
Young coconut ice is refreshing drink liked by most of people. This coconut drinks are sold in the suburban road of Pettarani Makassar City, South Sulawesi, Indonesia Young coconut ice is a traditional drink that is very popular by the public. And very easy to be contaminated by Escherichia coli, if the processing is not hygiene. To determine the amount of Escherichia coli and Coliform in the sample using the MPN test (Most Probability Number) as estimation number of individual bacteria. The MPN method has a 95% confidence limit on every MPN value. The unit used is generally per 100 ml or per gram. This examination has been carried out at the Health Analyst Laboratory and Health Laboratory of Makassar on August 2 to October 28, 2016. The purpose of this study is to determine the number of Most Probable Number (MPN) Coliform bacteria and fecal Coli on coconut ice sold in Makassar City. This type of research is a descriptive laboratory observation to find out the number of coliform and fecal coli on coconut ice sold in Makassar City. The number of samples in this study were 30 taken by cluster sampling. This examination is carried out in two stages: the examination of the number of coliform and Escherichia coli. The results showed that the number of MPN Coliform in young coconut ice sold in Makassar is above the maximum limit of contamination according to Indonesian National Standard (SNI) that is (100%) and 10 samples (33.33%) are contaminated with Escherichia coli (none eligible health according to SNI). Health Department suggested to provide counseling about the importance of maintaining hygiene and contamination by microbes for the community to avoid the resulting illness.
