Abstract

<p align="justify">The increasing consumer awareness has laid a greater emphasis on producing microbiologically safe foods for human consumption. A few important foodborne bacterial pathogens are predominant in foods and thus, are responsible in causing serious public health hazards. In this context, it becomes necessary to subject the foods to accurate microbiological analysis, particularly for these dominating bacterial pathogens. This review critically analyses the methods of detection and enumeration of foodborne pathogenic bacteria with specific reference to the advantages and limitations of the methods.</p>
