Date palm （Phoenix dactylifera L.） fruit is an important component in arid and semi-arid diet regions of the world. The present study pointed out microbial investigating of date palm collected from National wholesale market in Fez city in the center north of Morocco. The results reveal that samples dates studied are contaminated by bacteria such as TAMF （total aerobic mesophilic flora）, ASR （anaerobic sulfite reducing）, yeasts and molds. The percentage of yeasts isolated is 50% for Saccharomyces cervisae, 10% for Zygosaccharomyces fermentati, 20% for Hansenula anomala, 10% for Lodderomyces elongisporus and 10% for Kluyveromyces fragilis. The frequency of molds distribution is 51% for Aspergillus niger, 33% for Penicillium notatum and 16% for Rhizopus oryzae. Newman and keuls grouping test shows that fungal germs distribution is equal for yeast and molds in all samples analyzed. In the opposite bacterial grouping test shows greet difference between groups of bacteria isolated from date＇s samples.
