The present study was designed to investigate the occurrence of Listeria spp. in two of economically important freshwater fish species namely Oreochromis niloticus (tilapia) and Clarias gariepinus which were collected from commercial fish markets in Assiut, also to explore the efficiency of five ice formulations : tab water ice (control), three ices sanitized using trisodium phosphate (TSP) 2.5%,5% and 10% in addition to an ice sanitized using sodium acetate (SA) 2.5% against Listeria monocytogenses (LM) artificially loaded on Tilapia fish at level of (5.5log10 CFU/g) and the effect of formulated ices on ice stability, sensory quality and pH of fish during storage at room temperature (25 °C). The microbiological analysis of sampled fish revealed that sampled fish represents health hazard to consumer and contact surfaces. 0. niloticus were more contaminated with Listeria spp. compared with C.gariepinus samples (16% and 4%, respectively).
