Resumen

SUESCUN-CARRERO, Sandra  y  AVILA-PANCHE, Sandra. Microbiological Evaluation in School Supply Programs in Educational Institutions in Boyacá Department - Colombia. Nova [online]. 2017, vol.15, n.28, pp.93-98. ISSN 1794-2470.

Objective.

To evaluate the microbiological quality in school feeding programs in educative institutions in the Department of Boyacá-Colombia in 2013-2015.

Methods.

Descriptive study of live and inert surfaces in dining rooms of the Educative Institutions of the Department of Boyacá, in 100 municipalities in 2013, 115 in 2014 and 123 in 2015. The parameters evaluated were: aerobic mesophilic microorganisms, total coliforms, faecal coliforms, Staphylococcus aureus (Staphylococcus Coagulase Positive).

Results.

200 samples were taken in 2013, 104 positive on alive surfaces and 149 on inert surfaces; total coliforms being found in 59.6% on alive surfaces, on inert surfaces 44.3%. 230 samples in 2014, 158 positive on alive surfaces and 148 for inert surfaces, with predominance of total coliforms on alive surfaces 48.1% and mesophiles on inert surfaces 49.3% and 526 samples in 2015, 256 surface positive on alive and 406 for inert material. Total Coliforms were found with 47.6%, Coagulase positive Staphylococcus with 3.1% and Mesophiles in inert surfaces 45.3%.

Conclusions.

The Surveillance, carried out by the Boyaca's Secretary of Health in educative institutions, shows that the results obtained in the insulation of inert and alive surfaces exceed the minimum values allowed, findings that show the non-compliance with good manufacturing practices, habits of the manipulators and the sanitary conditions of the school canteens.
