Microbiological and Chemicophysical Comparative Study of Cow's Milk in the Commune of Mograne (Gharb region, Morocco)

Abstract

With the aim of studying the bacteriological quality of the milk of the town of mograne in comparison with a study made in 2007; ten samples of the cow's milk restarted in two series were analyzed by physico-chemical and microbiological point of view. the obtained results, show that analyzed milk present successful physico-chemical characters parrapport in 2007. So the temperature of milk after draft has little meadows 37°c and the pH is 6.68. the bacteriological load in FMAT is of average of 5.67.105 ufc / ml and the average contents total and faecal coliformes are respectively 9,07.103 ufc / ml and 4,53.103 ufc / ml. the realized analyses also mark the total absence of staphylococci, salmonellas and clostridiums; a good indicator on the sanitary state of cows treated as well as on the quality of analyzed milk. these results are better than that those registered in 2007, what informs about the  impact of the practices of hygiene and breeding on the bacteriological quality of the milk.
