These preservatives included salts of organic acid   (sodium acetate and sodium benzoate) which inhibit growth of the bacterium at (25%) w/v concentration,  also the effects  of different concentrations of  inorganic salt food additives sodium chloride were studied, which inhibit   the growth of  <em>L. monocytogenes </em> at (15%) w/v concentration . On the other hand the growth and survival of <em>L. monocytogenes</em> at different concentrations of two generally recognized as safe acids (lactic acid and acetic acid ) was determined , the growth of  bacterium was completely inhibited at (55mM) concentration of acetic acid  and at  ( 65mM ) of lactic acid .  Controlling of <em>L. monocytogenes</em> by tri-sodium phosphate (TSP) by dipping of artificially contaminated chicken meat in (10%) of TSP for (10) min.,  significantly reduced the population of the pathogen on the surface of meat to standard safe limit.So the study aimed to determining the effect of some chemical preservatives (acetic acid, lactic acid, sodium benzoate , sodium acetate and sodium chloride) on growth   of local isolats of <em>  L. monocytogenes </em>which isolated from different food sources in Erbil  and Koya city.  </p>}, number={2}, journal={Science Journal of University of Zakho}, author={Kakey, Shean I. and Ali, Jassim F. and Alzubaidy, Zainab M.}, year={2013}, month={Sep.}, pages={651–658} }
