Microbial Spoilage of

Milk and Milk Product


Microbial Spoilage of Milk product
⬩ The loss of quality of milk and its product for its consumption due
to the microbial growth or any other microbial product is known
as Microbial spoilage of milk product.

2
Microbial spoilage of Milk and Milk Product
• Dairy products such as milk, butter, cream and cheese are all
susceptible to microbial spoilage due to their
 high nutritional composition (Protein, Carbohydrate, Fats, Minerals,
Lactose sugar, citrate and nitrogenous compounds)
 high water activity and
 moderate pH (6.4-6.6)
 Limited self life

3
Condition of Type of mos Examples of mos
spoilage
During refrigerated psychrotrophs Pseudomonas, Flavobacterium,
storage Alcaligenes, Listeria
monocytogenes, Yersinia
enterocolitica, some coliforms,
and Bacillus spp.
After pasteurization thermoduric Enterococcus, Streptococcus,
microorganisms some Lactobacillus, and spores
of Bacillus and Clostridium
spoilage after the Molds and yeasts Aspergillus, Byssochlamys,
heat treatment Cladosporium, Candida spp.

The source of milk contamination are:
⬩ the contamination from milking animals
⬩ the interior and exterior of the udder
⬩ the coat of the milking animals
⬩ the surrounding air of the farm and storage
⬩ the animal feed
⬩ the quality of water used
⬩ the quality of milk handling equipment and storage tanks used
⬩ biofilms formation on diary plant pipes
