Here, we review what is known about the microorganisms present in raw milk, including milk from cows, sheep, goats and humans. Milk, due to its high nutritional content, can support a rich microbiota. These microorganisms enter milk from a variety of sources and, once in milk, can play a number of roles, such as facilitating dairy fermentations (e.g. Lactococcus, Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, P...

In this study, it was aimed to investigate α -S1-casein and β -lactoglobulin levels some biochemical mineral values in raw milk samples obtained from cows, buffaloes, sheep, goats raised Samsun. The study material consisted of 40 taken goats, sheep buffaloes after milking a farm Samsun province Bafra district. α-S1-casein β-lactoglobulin serum were determined using ELISA test kits. Calcium (Ca)...

Milk of naturally infected animal species is considered an essential reservoir Toxoplasma gondii, Neospora caninum, and Cryptosporidium parvum. An extant survey was performed to measure the T. N. C. parvum incidence periodic frequency amongst milk samples. One-thousand one-hundred sixty raw 400 pasteurized samples were collected. used for DNA extraction. The nested-polymerase chain reaction app...

We evaluated the capacity of the Mycoplasma agalactiae p40 gene as a diagnostic marker for contagious agalactia in sheep by quantitative real-time PCR. The p40 gene encodes an immunodominant adhesin that plays a key role in cytoadhesion of M. agalactiae. The assay was 100% specific, with an analytical sensitivity of 1 genome equivalent (GE), a quantification that is highly linear (R(2) > 0.992)...

The present study was conducted on milk samples from 30 Italian Mediterranean buffaloes, and as many goats, sheep cattle. Milk were subjected to chemical‑nutritional analysis compared with commercially available samples. In the experiments, management conditions could have influenced this parameter, determining observed values. higher fat content in sheep's differed significantly that of other ...

Kivircik sheep is an important local Turkish sheep according to its meat quality and milk productivity. The aim of this study was to analyze gene expression profiles of both prenatal and postnatal stages for the Kivircik sheep. Therefore, two different cDNA libraries, which were taken from the same Kivircik sheep mammary gland tissue at prenatal and postnatal stages, were constructed. Total 307...

background and objectives: infectious diarrhoeal diseases are great problem throughout the world and are responsible for considerable morbidity and mortality. shiga toxin-producing escherichia coli (stec) is a major cause of gastroenteritis that may be complicated by hemorrhagic colitis (hc) or the hemolytic uremic syndrome (hus), which is the main cause of acute renal failure in children. food...

background: microbiological and chemical qualities ofmilk are among the most important issues in public health.objectives:although there are a few published studies whichhave been conducted in south east of iran this study wasperformed to investigate quality of raw milk delivered to a dairyindustry company kerman province. methods:atotal of 109raw milk samples were collected at the time of deli...

Background: One of the adulterant practice in dairy industry is the use of a less costly type of milk such as cow and goat milk instead of more expensive ones especially sheep milk. The aim of the present study was to assess fraud identification of undeclared milk species in composition of sheep yogurt and cheese offered as “pure sheep” in Iranian local markets. Methods: Samples ...
