چکیده

A total of 47 psychrotrophic pseudomonads isolated from raw milk came from Newfoundland (19 isolates), British Columbia (6 isolates), Ontario (19 isolates), and Cork, Ireland (3 isolates). The susceptibility of these was tested against 30 bacteriophages isolated from cold-storage beef. Distinct lysotypes were observed with isolates representing different geographic regions. Phages as agents in the control of bacterial populations in milk is discussed.

Association between milking practices and psychrotrophic bacterial counts in bulk tank milk.

The objective of this work was to determine on-farm risk factors for psychrotrophic bacterial counts in bulk tank milk from dairy farms in Argentina. Raw milk samples from bulk tanks of 27 dairy farms were examined for total psychrotrophic counts (TPC), proteolytic psychrotrophic counts (PPC) and lipolytic psychrotrophic counts (LPC) (dependent or outcome variables). A survey recording infrastr...

Psychrotrophic bacteria in milk: How much do we really know?

The occurrence of psychrotrophic bacteria in raw milk is studied worldwide due to the difficulties associated with controlling their growth during cold storage and the consequent negative effects upon fluid milk or dairy products. Among the psychrotrophic bacteria, the genus Pseudomonas (represented primarily by P. fluorescens) has been highlighted as the cause of numerous defects in dairy prod...

Psychrotrophic bacteria and milk and dairy products quality

The characteristics of microbial populations in raw milk at the time of processing has a significant influence on shelf life, organoleptic quality, spoilage and yields of the raw milk, processed milk as well as on the other dairy products. Unfortunately, cold and extended storage of raw milk, as a common practice in dairy sector today, favour the growth of psychrotrophic bacteria. Therefore, th...

Culturable psychrotrophic bacterial communities in raw milk and their proteolytic and lipolytic traits.

During cold storage after milk collection, psychrotrophic bacterial populations dominate the microflora, and their extracellular enzymes, mainly proteases and lipases, contribute to the spoilage of dairy products. The diversity, dynamics, and enzymatic traits of culturable psychrotrophs in raw milk from four farms were investigated over a 10-month period. About 20% of the isolates were found to...

Hygiene of Pasteurized Milk Depending on Psychrotrophic Microorganisms

Influence of storage temperature on the shelf life of the pasteurized milk and the enzymatic activity of psychrotrophic bacteria in whole and skimmed pasteurized milk were the main goals of the presented work. It was demonstrated that the storage temperature of 10C reduces the shelf life of pasteurized milk to one third in comparison with a storage at 4 C. The average shelf life of the full cre...
