Evaluation of the microbiological quality of natural processed products for medicinal use marketed in Quito, Ecuador.

CONCLUSIONS: The microbiological quality of the products examined was not adequate. Potentially pathogenic and antibiotic resistant microorganisms were isolated from the samples. These products may not be suitable for distribution and consumption, even though many of them have sanitary registration. Control and regulation by the corresponding authorities is essential.
