Abstract

ofu cheeses, due to high water and protein content become susceptible to attacks by microorganisms, in particular if the adequate manufacture and/or storage procedures are not applied and followed. The aim of the research was to assess the microbiological quality of the three types of tofu: natural, marinated and smoked. The largest degree of microbial contamination revealed smoked tofu cheese, while the lowest contamination was observed in case of natural tofu.
