On the purpose of epidemiological survey relate to food poisoning, a total of 114 samples of different salads collected from fast food Restaurants in Gyeonggi-do were for the presence of pathogenic microorganisms. Microbial assessment of salads revealed that TPC(l.1¡¿10~8.4¡¿10^5 CFU/g) and coliforms(O~5.4¡¿10©þ CFU/g) exceeded the standards by Solberg et al.(TPC:10^5 CFU/g, coliforms:10©÷ CFU/g). Two pathogenic bacteria were isolated from salad samples, and identified by biochemical methods, including API identification systems. Isolates from PALCAM agar and MYP agar media were in 98.6, 99.8% agreements with Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus cereus at the species level, respectively. All 7 strains of Bacillus cereus isolates produced enterotoxin as revealed with CRET-RPLA,
