Journal Title: Annual Research & Review in Biology - Year 2017, Vol 14, Issue 2

Abstract

During the past decades, many researches have investigated the microbiological quality of milk and milk products. Milk was found to be contaminated with several types of bacteria. Most of these bacteria have been found to show different antibiotic resistance patterns against several known antibiotics. Different characterization methods such as conventional biochemical tests and DNA-based methods have been applied. Therefore, the aim of this study was to review the recent studies about the microbiological quality of milk and milk products.
