In this work, microbiological analyses were carried out in order to investigate the following microorganisms described in ANVISA's Normative Instruction No. 161, Total Coliforms, E.coli, Pseudonomonas aeruginosas and Enterococcus spp in water added to salts bottled in PET and PP bottles with a capacity of 20 L. Under the same analysis conditions, the results for PP bottles were unsatisfactory with 100% presence for Total Coliforms and Pseudonomonas aeruginosa, while in the 20 Liter PET packages all the results were satisfactory, that is, with the absence for all microorganisms of ANVISA's I.N. No. 161.
