The purpose of this study was to analyze the microbiological content of the emollient dispensed in the city of Puno and determine if there is a relationship with the sanitary hygiene of the dispensers, such as: The Terrestrial terminal, Zonal terminal, Laykakota market, Union and Dignity market, Bellavista market, Central market and surrounding places. The methods used in the investigation were based on the Sanitary Directive No. 032.MINSA/DIGESA for the sampling and reception of the sample. Through microbiological analysis, the following were determined: mesophilic aerobes, molds and yeasts, as a health indicator and the presence of Escherichia Coli and enterobacteria as pathogens; The presence of these microorganisms made it possible to determine whether or not this beverage is suitable for human consumption through the Sanitary Standard that establishes Microbiological Criteria for Sanitary Quality and Safety for Food and Beverages for Human Consumption NTS N°071-MINSA/DIGESA-V. 01 and Sanitary Standard on Microbiological Criteria for Sanitary Quality and Safety for Food and Beverages for Human Consumption N°007-98-SA. Sanitary and hygienic conditions were evaluated by means of the card for sanitary evaluation of ambulatory beverage sales positions (emollient) that allowed to determine the sanitary conditions in which the ambulatory carts that sell this beverage are found, the ingredients that are used in the preparation of the emollient, a survey was also applied to the vendors that allowed measuring the level of knowledge about good food handling practices (BPM).
