Owing to the increasing importance of fish as one of the most important food staffs, and constitutes the chief source of protein in the diet of wide range of peoples, and also owing to the wide spread distribution of mould and yeasts which comprise a large group of microorganisms and may contaminate foods, resulting in serious effects on human health. the present study was planned to detect the incidence of mould and yeasts contamination of fresh water fish (Tilapia nilotica) in El-Gharbia and Kafr El-Sheikh Governorates. A total of 180 random samples of (Tilapia nilotica) were collected from El-Gharbia and Kafr El-Sheikh (90 of each) the obtained results indicates that 44.4% and 50% of El-Gharbia and Kafr El-Sheikh samples were contaminated by mould and yeasts respectively. Moreover, the isolated strains of mould and yeasts were identified and recorded in different percents. The public health significance of isolated microorganisms were also discussed.
