Fifty frozen chicken samples were collected from markets located in Alexandria city, and were subjected to Microbiological and Chemical examination. Bacteriological examination recorded mean values of total Aerobic Plate Count, Total Enterobacteriaceae and total Coliform counts of frozen chicken were 1.6× 106, 3.3×104 and 1.3×103 cfu/g respectively. The incidence of Staph. aureus, Enteropathogenic E-coli and Salmonella species in frozen chicken samples were 20,16 and 6% respectively. The pH and TVB-N were within the permissible limits. The examined samples had a normal values of cadmium (cd), lead (pb), copper (cu) and Mercury (Hg) (the mean values were 0.005, 0.0022. 0.954 and 0.085 mg/g Respectively) and were analized by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometers. The Public health hazard of bacteria and heavy metal residues were discussed.
