O dinheiro é talvez o artigo mais trocado por pessoas em todo o mundo servindo como reservatório de microrganismos que podem ser transmitidos entre a população. O objetivo do presente estudo foi analisar a contaminação das cédulas monetárias circulantes em feira livre do interior da Bahia por espécies de relevância clínica como as Enterobactérias, Staphylococcus spp. e espécies de Candida, além de analisar a contaminação geral. Foram coletadas amostras das superfícies de 50 cédulas em circulação na feira livre. As amostras foram identificadas e no laboratório foram agitadas obtendo-se uma suspensão inicial e a partir dessa foram realizadas diluições decimais que foram semeadas em duplicata em placas de Petri contendo os meios de cultura Ágar-sangue, Ágar Sabouraud dextrose com cloranfenicol, Ágar salgado manitol e Agar MacConkey. As placas foram incubadas a 37ºC/ 24h (5 dias a temperatura ambiente para crescimento de fungos). Os resultados obtidos em UFC/mL foram analisados pelo teste estatístico ANOVA (5%). Pôde-se concluir que nas cédulas monetárias foram coletadas amostras de todos os microrganismos de interesse no estudo e que existe necessidade de implementação de políticas públicas para minimização da contaminação das cédulas enfatizando os bons hábitos de higiene pessoal entre a população.
