Compared to the maximum limit of microbial contamination according to the Indonesia National Standard (SNI 7688:2009), 80% of chicken samples from Pasar Modern were higher than the standard (maximum limit = 100 cfu/gram), and then 66.7% of samples from Pasar Jombang and 54.5% of samples from Pasar Bukit were higher than the standard.
