One type of activity done by tourists is culinary tourism, so the topic of food safety has become an increasingly important issue in recent The emergence of foodborne diseases affects society in health, economic, and social aspects (Karaca et al. , 2. Foodborne disease is a growing public health problem throughout the world. This foodborne disorder is the result of consuming contaminated food. Contamination can be caused by environmental contamination, including water, soil, or air contamination which can occur at every stage of the food production process until the food is consumed. The most common clinical manifestation of foodborne (Rahmayani & Simatupang, 2. One of the pathogenic bacteria that causes foodborne disease is Escherichia. coli or E. The presence of these bacteria is often associated with contamination originating from feces because E. coli generally lives in the intestines of humans . nd animal. so the presence of these bacteria in water or food indicates that a processing process has come into contact with feces (Rahayu et al. , 2. The data from the World Health Organization (WHO) states that foodborne diseases and diarrhea due to water contamination kill around 2 million people per year (Sari, 2. Based on the report from the Food and Drug Supervisory Agency of the Republic of Indonesia (BPOM RI) in 2020, 45 extraordinary incidents of food poisoning were discovered, with a total of 3276 people exposed and 1528 of them experiencing symptoms of illness . ttack rate of 46. 62 %). Meanwhile, 6 people died . ase fatality rate was 0. 18%). The most common cause of KP outbreaks was microbiology . with 24 incidents . %) and 1 incident . %) was confirmed (BPOM RI, 2. Food poisoning cases in Bali Province reached 387 cases in 2018 based on the Health Service report (Dinas Kesehatan Provinsi Bali. In 2018, through the weekly SKDR (Early Alert and Response Syste. recap in Denpasar City, the highest case was acute diarrhea with a total of 4,588 cases (Denpasar City Health Service, 2. Research conducted by Masyeni in 2017 stated that E. coli was the main microorganism that causes diarrhea in tourists in Bali (Masyeni et al. , 2.

Based on the problems that have been described, researchers are interested in researching the microbiological aspects of food safety in spring rolls sold in the Sanur Beach. METHOD The type of research used observational analytics with a cross-sectional research design. Research time: This research was conducted in November-December 2021. Research location: The research was conducted in the Sanur Beach tourist area which is located in Sanur Kaja Village and Sanur. Researchers choose research locations based on several considerations, that were: There had been no similar research at this location, it is one of the most visited tourist destinations in Bali, and there were sufficient samples available according to the criteria. The population was spring roll traders in the Sanur Beach tourist area. The sample size in this study was 16 traders who produced their spring rolls. The sampling technique in this research used the Saturated Sampling technique. In this study, all members of the population were used as samples because the population was relatively small, less than 30 people. Data collected in the research included primary and secondary data. Primary data collection methods, were trader identity and production characteristics were collected by interview, food safety score data by observation, and data on total microbial and E. Coli contamination were tested in the laboratory using the Total Plate Count (TPC) method for total microbial contamination, and Most Probable Number (MPN) for coliforms then followed by Eosin Methylene Blue Agar (EMBA) to identify coliforms of the E. Coli type. Spring roll samples were purchased after doing a sales process of at least 4 hours. The spring roll samples taken a cut by the trader then put in sterile plastic containing a sample code, then put in a cool box to maintain the ideal sample temperature of 4oC - 10oC g and delivered to the Panureksa Utama Public Health Laboratory. The data was then processed and presented in the form of a frequency distribution table and analyzed descriptively. The data on food safety scores and total microbial contamination were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test with the type of data and objectives to be achieved. Research ethics samples are selected if they meet the requirements and are willing to be researched and fill out a statement of willingness to be a sample. RESULTS Respondent Characteristics The research was done in coastal areas located in Sanur Kaja Village and Sanur . Denpasar City from the Bali Beach area to Karang Beach. This beach is located just east of Denpasar City. Bali Province. The respondents in this research were 16 spring roll traders spread from the Bali Beach area to Karang Beach. Based on the results of data research regarding respondents, that were spring roll traders, the distribution was based on gender, age, highest level of education, and history of following socialization regarding food safety.

ISSN 3032-4408 (Onlin. https://ejournal. poltekkes-denpasar. id/index. php/icmahs the result of observing factors that might contaminate food. The way to assess SKP is through observing parameters in the form of a checklist that has been find out by the Ministry of Health. Boring . assessment is divided into 4 components, that were selection and storage of food ingredients, handler hygiene, processing and distribution of food, and each component is further divided into several sub-components (Lestari, 2. Based on observations of spring roll production, it was found that of the 16 production sites observed, only 1 sample had good food safety. The low food safety score which is in the good category indicates that there is still low implementation of safe food provisions by spring roll traders, one of which is low awareness of maintaining cleanliness. This is in line with research by Kahlasi. Febriani, and Chasanah in 2019 which showed that 85% of traders had poor sanitation hygiene behavior, one of which was influenced by the level of knowledge regarding sanitation hygiene which was less than 75. 5% (Kahlasi et al. , 2. This was also found in research where all traders never took part in socialization regarding food safety and sanitation hygiene, so this could be one of the reasons for low sanitation hygiene behavior which influences food safety scores. Identification of Total Microbial and Coliform Contamination Identify total microbial contamination using Total Plate Count (TPC). TPC is the number of mesophilic aerobic microbes per gram or per milliliter of sample find outd using standard ALT is generally not related to food safety hazards but is sometimes useful to life/half-life, contamination, and hygienic status during the production process (BPOM, 2. Based on laboratory tests that have been done, it shows that of the 16 samples tested, 3 samples . 75%) showed a total of > 1 x 104 colonies/gram of microbes. This value exceeds the maximum limit set by BPOM RI regulation Number HK. 4011 of 2009. There are still spring rolls that have total microbial numbers that exceed the requirements, indicating that hygiene has not been implemented optimally. Apart from that, the length of time the product is sold at room temperature causes more bacteria to reproduce, this is because if cooked food is stored at room temperature for more than 4 hours in the danger zone temperature . o-60oC) it will increase the potential for microbial growth. Under optimal conditions, almost all bacteria will divide by binary fission every A 20 minutes, but certain types of bacteria require a cell regeneration time of A 12 minutes (Kristiandi et al. , 2. It is feared that the production of bacteria that continues to grow will cause toxins or toxins. Toxin production will increase in line with the number of bacteria (Irawan, 2. Apart from total microbial contamination, testing for Coliform and E. coli contamination was also done on spring rolls. In testing using the Most Probable Number (MPN) method, which is a method of determining the number of microorganisms using the liquid medium in a test tube, the principle is to count the number of positive tubes that grow microbes after incubation at a certain temperature and time. this test, 3 stages are done, that were a prediction test, followed by a reinforcement test, and a complementary test with specific media that were EMBA to find out whether the Ni Kadek Mahesa Dwipayani, et all : Food Safety Study From Microbiological Aspect at Spring Rolls Production in Tourism Area.

ISSN 3032-4408 (Onlin. https://ejournal. poltekkes-denpasar. id/index. php/icmahs Coliform indicated in the amplifier test is E. which is marked with a metallic green color. Based on the MPN test done on 16 spring roll samples, there were 3 samples . 75%) that contained MPN > 3/gram, which means it exceeded the standard, that were MPN < 3/gram. Samples that exceed the standard in the boost test will proceed to the EMBA test and one sample will be found that shows a metallic green color, indicating that the sample is positive for E. The presence of E. coli is often associated with contamination originating from feces because this bacteria is generally a bacteria that lives in the human intestine. Factors that contribute to E. coli contamination in food are failure to fulfill processing process parameters, such as cooking temperature, pH value, water activity, and improper storage processes (Rahayu et al. , 2. Contamination of food can result in foodborne illness. Riana and Sumarmi's research in 2018 stated that the factors influencing the increase in the number of Coliform bacteria contamination were indicators of the presence of traders with sources of Traders who sell in locations close to sources of pollution trigger the transfer of dangerous microbes in rubbish or rivers to food via flies, insects, or the air (Riana & Sumarmi. Apart from that, one of the samples that were positive for containing E. coli was also suspected of being contaminated on the hands of food processors or handlers after defecating, food processors did not wash their hands thoroughly, which means food handlers could spread diseases that could be transferred to other people through food (Rauf, 2. If we look at the low food safety score, especially in the sub-component of food processing, it is also a risk factor for coliform and coli contamination. When the finished spring roll product is put into the box selling spring rolls, it is held directly using the hand. Contaminated hands can contaminate equipment. Equipment used to serve food that has been contaminated with E. coli can also be a source of contamination of finished food. Contamination of cooked food influences the contamination of food served (Jiastuti, 2. Another factor that can cause contamination is poor storage of finished Based on observations, it was found that most traders put spring rolls in boxes or containers that were not kept clean, some traders used plastic lids which were used periodically as food covers. This is in line with research conducted by Ramadhani. Abidin, and Ardhyanti, 2018 which states that the relationship between food sanitation and the presence of E. coli bacteria can be caused by several factors, such as storage areas that are not kept clean, finished food storage areas that are not closed. and an open way of presenting (Ramadhani et al. , 2. Total Plate Count Based on Food Safety Score The total bacteria contained in food is influenced by the sanitation in each process, actions that can trigger bacterial growth, as well as efforts and processes done to prevent bacterial growth (Alwi et al. , 2. Judging from the lack of food safety scores and microbiology aspects of spring roll traders, the knowledge of spring roll traders regarding personal hygiene and environmental sanitation needs to be improved by providing counseling or socialization to traders. This is because all traders . %) have never participated in socialization regarding food safety including Ni Kadek Mahesa Dwipayani, et all : Food Safety Study From Microbiological Aspect at Spring Rolls Production in Tourism Area.

One of the outreach programs that can be provided is about Good Food Production Methods (CPPB) known as Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). GMP is closely related to food safety. Food safety itself can be assessed from several aspects, including processing technology, ingredient content, processing sanitation, amount of microorganisms, packaging, and so Food safety will be guaranteed if there is standardization that is find outd and implemented well by the industry in the food sector (Suprayogi, 2. CONCLUSION(S) There are differences in total microbes based on the safety score of food sold in the Sanur Beach tourist area. The food safety score for spring roll production in the Sanur Beach tourist area was 13 samples in the vulnerable category, safe for consumption and based on contamination using the TPC method and coliform contamination using the MPN method, 3 samples each did not meet the standards and 1 sample was found. positive for E. coli which is of particular concern for improving the quality of handling of spring roll products in the future. Suggestions for related departments and institutions, so that they can do supervision and provide education to traders regarding the importance of personal hygiene, food sanitation, proper and correct food processing, as well as the dangers of food processing that lacks sanitary hygiene.
