Abstract

Background: Various water-borne diseases have been seen in developed and developing countries, like
Coliform bacteria in food and drink due to their poor making.
Objective: This study aims to estimate the hygiene factors and examine the content of Coliform bacteria and
in Thai Tea drinks in Yogyakarta Municipality.
Methods: A cross-sectional method was used in all Thai Tea product sellers in Yogyakarta Municipality from
September to November 2020. A total of 30 sellers were included, and 30 different types of Thai Tea products
were tested using the Most Probably Number (MPN) method at the Health and Calibration Laboratory Center,
Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Descriptive statistics, Chi-square, and Fisher exact test were used for data analysis.
Results: Laboratory tests showed half of Thai Tea products contaminated with Coliform bacteria more than
MPN/100ML. Of all Thai Tea sellers, about 83.3% of them were never hygiene food sanitation training.
Findings also show that the seller’s hygiene sanitation was significantly associated with the existence of
Coliform bacteria in Thai Tea (Crude OR=0.44, 95% CI=0.20-0.98). The sellers with poor sanitation facilities
were four times more likely to have Coliform bacteria in their Thai Tea products (Crude OR=4.0, 95% CI=1.41-
11.35). Meanwhile, hygiene food sanitation training and location of selling did not have a significant relationship
with the presence of Coliform in Thai Tea.
Conclusion: In sum, the existence of Coliform in Thai Tea drinks in the city of Yogyakarta is influenced by the
hygiene sanitation and sanitation facility. Training on personal hygiene for each seller is necessary to obtain
Thai Tea products that contain Coliform bacteria according to standards. This is very useful to do to reduce
food-borne disease.
