Associated micro-flora were isolated and identified based on their cultural, microscopic, biochemical & physiological characteristics. Among 30 bacterial strains - thirteen (40.33%) were collected from control, nine (30%) from chemical treated, five (16.67%) from radiation treated and three (10%) from combined treated samples. Total 9 bacterial species were identified in which Staphylococcus aureus (23.33%), Bacillus subtilis (20.33%), Micrococcus varians (16.67%) and Escherichia coli (13.33%) were frequent species. Among 10 mould strains - seven (70.00%) were collected from control, three (30.00%) from radiation treated while no colonies were found from chemical and combined treated samples. Total 4 genus of moulds were identified in which Aspergillus (40.00%) was dominant. Potassium sorbate (0, 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5 %) and gamma radiation (0, 2, 4, 6, 8 & 10 kGy) were applied for the sensitivity on identified bacterial species. Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Micrococcus varians & Escherichia coli were completely eliminated at 4, 5, 3 & 4 % potassium sorbate and 6, 8, 4 & 6 kG gamma radiation doses. 100 pp. Englisch.
