Abstract

The objectives of this paper are to examine the level of fecal indicator bacterial counts Fecal Coliform FC and Eschericia coli EC in Penang Perak and Kedah and to compare the mean FC and EC in shellfish from the three States pre- and post- tsunami. The data used in this paper were obtained from the department of Fisheries Malaysia and Photosanitary SPS Program which monitors the shellfish waters around the Peninsular Malaysia regularly. Data were analysed using SPSS 11.5. Based on statistical analysis it is shown that there was no significant difference p greater than 0.05 between the mean FC and EC counts in Penang Perak and Kedah pre- and post- tsunami.
