[Method] The method of Salmonella detection was in accordance with provisions of the national standard GB/T 13091-2002, and the method of Coliform group detection was in accordance with provisions of the national standard GB/T 18869-2002. [ Result ] The straw feed had the highest number of Coliform group, which was up to 11 000/100 g; However, processed feeds like pellet feed, cottonseed feed and rapeseed feed, the number of Coliform group were all lower than 40/100 g; and there's no Salmonella to be detected in all feed samples. [ Conclusion ] All the 18 detected beef feed samples were contaminated by Coliform group at different degrees.
