摘要:The study was conducted to evaluate bacteriological quality of raw milk at Dehradun. Milk samples were collected from local vendors of premnagar(Dehradun). Raw milk can carry harmful bacteria & other germs that can make you very sick. It is to get food borne disease from many different foods; raw milk is one of the riskiest of all. The contamination level of sample was estimated by MBRT test & standard plate count. Isolated colonies of bacteria were identified by observing culture characters, microscopy &IMViC test. In the present study the outcomes of thirteen samples revealed that the out of thirteen samples many were found to be contaminated with staphylococcus, streptococcus lactis, Bacillus cereus, Micrococcus, Alcaligenesand one were found to be contaminated with Escherichia coli. It indicates a need for more strict hygienic practices. To ensure that only good quality milk is sold, for this there should be a proper control system. This will improve the quality of milk and protect the health of consumers.
