This study monitored and compared the contamination levels of total aerobic bacteria, coliforms, Escherichia coli, and L. monocytogenes of either lettuce, sesame leaf, or cucumber sampled from either 15 super markets(SM) or 21 traditional markets(TM) located in both Seoul and the southern part of Gyunggi. Contamination levels of total aerobic bacteria and coliforms in lettuce, sesame leaf, or cucumber from SM or TM were not (p greater than 0.05) significantly different. The highest contamination levels of total aerobic bacteria were observed in lettuce and followed by sesame leaf and cucumber.
