Total bacterial count as well as microorganisms grown on Plate Count Agar were studied on 45 brine samples. Total bacterial count ranged between 10(exp 6) and 10(exp 7)/ml for the greatest part of the samples examined. Among the isolates, yeasts which were classified as Debaryomyces were found with the greatest occurrence (46.1%), followed by coryneforms (24.5%) coagulase negative staphylococci (15.4%) bacilli (8.4%) which were classified as Bacillus cereus, Bacillus coagulans and Bacillus pantothenicus and Gram negative rods (5.6%) characterized as coliforms. Only yeasts were grown in the presence of 12% NaCl. A great number among the isolates were found to split tributyrin
