Microbial Safety in Pasteurized Milk

Microbial colonies were isolated in pasteurized milk samples, but some samples did not form standard plate or coliform plate colonies. Tests showed many samples had unacceptable levels of Enterobacter spp. and Escherichia coli, demonstrating the need for dairy plants to routinely perform tests like the methylene blue reduction test to ensure milk safety for human consumption.

CONCLUSION

Microbial colonies are isolated in pasteurized milk


sample.The standard plate and coliform plate
microbial colonies are not formed in some milk
sample.Effective measures to ensure safe milk for
human consumption such as the methylene blue
reduction test should be routinely performed on
each batch of milk proceed by daiy plants.In many
experinments,unacceptable levels Enterobactor
spp.and Escherichia Coli were found in most
samples.
