S ummary . The microflora of liquid whole egg made by centrifuging incubator reject shell eggs was investigated by examining a selection of colonies growing on different selective culture media. As a result of the method of manufacture micro‐organisms were present and of the 200 isolates characterized, most belonged to the Bacillaceae, Enterobacteriaceae, Lactobacillaceae, Micrococcaceae and Pseudomonadaceae. A pasteurization treatment showed the presence of a thermoresistant flora. Some representatives of the Bacillaceae and the Lactobacillaceae showed resistance to the heat treatment given.
