Quinoa flour is an interesting raw material for the food industry due to its balanced nutrient content, from which different bakery foods such as snacks, pasta, bread, among others, can be obtained. For this reason, it is important that it complies with the microbiological quality stipulated by the Colombian technical standard NTC. In the present work, microbiological characterization of hyperprotein quinoa flour was carried out. The microbiological analysis was carried out under the NTC that applies to each microorganism. The flours presented contents in almost all the microorganisms tested, highlighting the count of fungi, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, none of the samples presented total coliforms or Salmonella spp. To our knowledge, this is the first microbiological characterization of quinoa hyperproteic flour
