 ABSTRACT

The objective of the study was to analyze the relationship of Total bacterial Count, Total cell
Count and Total Psychrotrophic Count as an indicator of each microbiological quality of
milk sample. A total of 50 raw milk samples (Set1, Set2, Set3) were collected from Mannargudi,
Thiruvarur (DT),Total Coliforms Counts are 420 cfu/ml in Set Ι (Raw Milk),100cfu/ml in Set ΙΙ
(Pasteurized Milk), 320cfu/ml in Set ΙΙΙ (Packet Milk). Followed by Total bacterial Counts are
520cfu/ml (Set 1 milk), 120cfu/ml in (Set 2 Milk) and 326cfu/ml (Set3 milk). Psychrotrophic bacteria
Counts are 400cfu/ml (Set 1 milk), 80cfu/ml (Set 2 milk) and 200cfu/ml (Set 3 milk), are also done by
the samples. Identified Microorganisms are (Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Lactobacillus, and E.
coli). Finally all the Counts are high in Set1 that is raw Milk samples.
Key words: Raw Milk, Packet Milk, Psychrotrophic bacteria, Total bacterial count, Total Coliforms.
