The microbiological quality of milk produced in the Balearic islands
Seasonal variations in the microbiological quality of raw cow's milk produced by 1144 farms in the two main Balearic islands, Majorca and Minorca, were investigated. Mean log counts in milk produced by 990 Majorca farms were 6.52 for total viable microorganisms, 5.55 for psychrotrophs, 5.26 for coliforms and 4.47 for thermoduric microorganisms. The respective mean log counts in milk produced by 154 Minorca farms were 6.33, 5.98, 4.86 and 4.60. The acidity and pH averaged 15.63 °D and 6.58, respectively, for milk produced in Majorca and 16.17 °D and 6.58, respectively, for milk produced in Minorca. Correlations between levels of the main microbial groups were significant. The pH was inversely correlated to levels of the main microbial groups. © 1994.
