Identification of bacterial pathogens isolated from cockroaches at selected food premises in Shah Alam / Anis Husna Wahab @ Sulaiman

Cockroaches play an important role in transmission of different diseases either mechanically and biological because they spread and harbour various species of microorganisms. Escherichia coli is the ones of the gram – negative bacteria isolated from cockroaches. Escherichia coli are key player in ba...
