Ortolani, Maria Beatriz Tassinari; Yamazi, Anderson Keizo; Moraes, Paula Mendonca; Nero, Luis Augusto; Viçosa, Gabriela NogueiraThis study aimed to characterize the microbiological quality and safety of raw milk and soft cheese, verifying possible associations between microbial populations, and the detection of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) with antagonistic activity against foodborne pathogens. Raw milk (n = 36) and soft cheese (n = 18) samples were collected and submitted for the analysis of mesophilic aerobes, total coliforms, Escherich...
Foodborne pathogens and microbiological characteristics of raw milk soft cheese...
Moraes, Paula Mendonca; Vicosa, Gabriela Nogueira; Yamazi, Anderson Keizo; Ortolani, Maria Beatriz Tassinari; Augusto Nero, LuisThe consumption of raw milk soft cheeses (RMSC), which are typically manufactured in small dairy farms under unsatisfactory hygiene conditions, is common in Brazil.
