Some Physicochemical and Microbiological Properties of Cow Milks Collected from Local Dairy Delicatessens in Erzurum, Turkey
Abstract
In this study, some
physicochemical and microbiological characteristics of 50 raw milk samples
which are sold in local dairy delicatessens in Erzurum province were
determined. As a result of the research, the non-fat dry matter (%), fat (%),
total dry matter (%), pH, acidity (%), and density values of the milk samples were 7.6-10.5, 1.5-6.8, 10.9-15.1,
6.46-7.33, 0.121-0.252 and 1.026-1.034, respectively. When the data were
evaluated according to the related standards, it was determined that 12% of the
raw milk was not suitable for fat, 6% for non-fat dry matter and 12% for total
acidity. The total aerobic of mesophilic bacteria counts in 98% of the samples
were > 100.000 cfu/mL-1, of the total coliform bacteria counts
were in the range of 5.18-5.83 log cfu/mL-1 in 38%, the total
Enterococcus spp. counts were in the range of 5.76-6.68 log cfu/mL-1,
the total number of Staphylococcus/Micrococcus spp. counts were in the range of
3.60-4.80 log cfu/mL-1 in 60% and the yeast-mold counts 4.38-5.07
log cfu/mL-1 in 36%. When all the results were taken into
consideration, it was recognized that the samples were found to have worse
microbiological quality than the chemical properties.
