Thirty samples of dried baby foods with milk base (16 locally-made & 14 imported) were obtained from different retailors in Assiut City for bacteriological examination. Total number of different types of microorganisms were counted and the isolates were typed. Most of the locally-made samples contained relatively higher numbers of bacteria, in particular 6 samples contained total bacterial counts >10°/g. Bacillus cereus was present in 24 samples, usually at levels K 500/g. Coliforms and fecal coliforms were recovered in 56.67% and 36.67% of examined samples, respectively. Yeasts and molds were found in 28 samples. No staphylococci were found. A marked increase in B.cereus count was observed when the reconst ituted baby food was stored for 6h. at the ambient temperature.
