The raw products showed high frequency of contamination and relatively high count Aeromonas hydrophila was the dominating species, 57.5%, being followed of A. veroni (22.5%), A. sobria (17.5%) and A. media (2.5%). None of the Aeromonas spp. was isolated from chlorinated or unchlorinated drinking water.
