The objective of this study was to determine the microbiological quality of fish and shellfish from Kolkata, India, with special emphasis on E. coli O157. Fresh and ice-preserved Labeo rohita, Catla catla, Cirrhinus mrigala, Oreochromis mossambica, Heteropneustes fossilis, Clarias batrachus, and Penaeus monodon were examined for total heterotrophic bacteria and coliform loads and presence of E. coli and E. coli serotype O157 by culture method. While the total plate count of bacteria was within acceptable or marginally acceptable limits for most samples, fishes were contaminated with coliforms, including E. coli, indicating poor hygiene and sanitary conditions. Although E. coli O157 could not be detected, a few samples were contaminated with non-O157 serotypes of enterohaemolysin- and Shiga toxin-producing E. coli, raising public health concern.
