We estabilished the procedure for isolation of Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus from raw milk. First, urease-producing lactic acid bacteria in raw milk were screened on the HY agar medium containing urea. Thereafter the urease-producing colonies were tested the ability to ferment maltose and to grow at43$\circ $C. We obtained about 400 maltose-negative colonies that grew at 43$\circ $C. No significant difference in carbohydrate fermentation test for isolated and type strains(S. salivarius subsp. thermophilus ATCC 19258 and ST-4) was found. And all of the isolated strains were able to ferment galactose. Furthermore, it was investigated that the cellular fatty acid profiles of isolated strains were similar to that of type strains. These results indicated that the isolated strains from raw milk were S. salivarius subsp. thermophilus. But when the isolated and type strains were incubated in 12% reconstituted skim milk at 43$\circ $C, the isolates produced lactic acid more slowly than the type strains.

In order to investigate the relationship between milk hygienic quality and some environmental factors such as the herd size and types of milking machines, we sampled and examined the level of total bacterial count, coliforms, Staphyococcus aureus, somatic cell counts(SCC) and fat rates in raw milk. of the 84 dairy farms, the prevalence of level on number of standard plate count over 100,000cfu/$m\ell$ and coliforms over 1,000cfu/$m\ell$ in bulk milk were 25.0% and 15.6%, respectively. Also, 2 farms(2.4%) were exceed the level on number of 500cfu/$m\ell$ S aureus in raw milk. The prevalence of dairy herd with first grade of total bacterial count(TBC) according to bucket, pipe line and parlour milking system was 40.0%, 74.0% and 84.0%, respectively. The prevalence of dairy herd with first grade of TBC according to grade 1, 2 and 3 by SCC was 77.8%, 83.2%. and 69.2%, respectively. Therefore, the relationships between hygienic quality in raw milk and the herd size, types of milking machines, were significant. In conclusion, this study could be overemphasized the importance of herd management condition for milk hygienic qualify.

Although many developed countries (USA, Canada, and several EU countries) allow raw milk cheese to be aged more than 60 days, these countries have strict standards for the aging conditions, such as temperature, of raw milk cheese. Spiking experiments were conducted with Camembert cheese made from raw milk, to assess the microbiological safety of raw milk cheese aged for more than 60 days. We spiked Escherichia coli O157:H7 into raw milk with different inoculation levels (high, medium, and low). Camembert cheese was prepared from the inoculated raw milk, then aged in an incubator for up to 9 weeks (63 days). There were no significant differences in pH and water activity (aW) between uninoculated cheese and cheese samples inoculated with E. coli O157:H7 (p<0.05). The pH and aWof the Camembert cheese decreased throughout the storage period. In conclusion, E. coli O157:H7 did not affect the pH and aW of the cheese samples. Cell counts were conducted every week using the agar-plating method. Inoculated cells were completely eliminated, especially in Camembert cheese, after 60 days, and the reduction rate of cells was much faster in Camembert cheese.

The present study was conducted to rapidly detect Listeria monocytogenes in raw milk. Specificity and sensitivity of polymerase chain reaction(PCR) technique, and direct PCR were examinded in raw milk, also were compared the calssical culture methods with PCR technique. This method used a pair of primers based on a unique region in the 16S rRNA sequence of L nomocytogenes. In the PCR specificity tests, each of the 10 strains of L monocytogenes tested gave a single 70-bp band. But the other six Listera spp tested gave negative results. Results of the sensitivity tests showed that as few as 2 CFU of L monocytogenes in pure cultures could be detected with 16S rRNA-based primers, L-1 and L-2. In different PCR cycles, a PCR product was detected with $10^3$ cells of L monocytogenes from 25 cycles to 50 cycles and the concentration of PCR products was cycle-dependent. Raw milk samopes added L monocytogenes cells gave negative results. However, these samplers gave a single 70-bp band by pretreatment of pronase, and PCR products were detected with $10^1$ cells of L monocytogenes. To detemine the most sensitive culture protocol to use in conjunction with the PCR assay, raw milk samples were inoculated with L monocytogenes at concentrations ranging from 1 to $5.7{\times}10^4CFU/ml$. PCR assays from Listeria enrichment broth(LEB) containing raw milk samples added L monocytogene EGD could dtect 10 cells in pronase-pretreated samples without incubation, and 1 cell of L monocytogenes in both 12 hr and 24 hr incubation, respectively. Isolation raw of PCR assays was similar to that of classical culture methods, but required time for detection of L monocytogenes could remarkably be reduced compare to culture methods.

Although the USA, Canada, and several EU countries allow raw milk cheese to be aged more than 60 days, these countries have strict standards for its aging conditions, such as temperature. Many developed countries have employed standards of identity which effectively prevent the manufacture and sale, of cheese made from unpasteurized milk (i.e., raw milk) in interstate commerce, unless such cheese has been aged for a minimum of 60 days. The microbiological safety of raw milk Camembert cheese, aged for more than 60 days, was evaluated using spiking experiments. We spiked Listeria monocytogenes into raw milk with different inoculation levels (high, medium and low). Camembert cheese was prepared from the inoculated raw milk, then aged in an incubator for up to 9 weeks (63 days). The number of cells was determined every week using the agar-plating method. Inoculated cells were completely eliminated, especially in Camembert cheese, after 60 days, and the reduction rate of cells was much faster in Camembert cheese. There were no significant differences in pH and water activity (aW) between the uninoculated cheese and the cheese samples in which Listeria monocytogenes was inoculated (p<0.05). The pH and aW of the Camembert cheese decreased throughout the storage period. In conclusion, the pathogenic bacteria used in this study did not affect the pH and aW of the Camembert cheese samples.

This study investigated the efficacy of ultraviolet-C (UV-C) irradiation in enhancing the quality of raw bovine milk by targeting microbial populations and lipid peroxidation, both of which are key factors in milk spoilage. We categorized the raw milk samples into three groups based on initial bacterial load: low (<3 Log 10 CFU/mL), medium (3-4 Log 10 CFU/mL), and high (>4 Log 10 CFU/mL). Using a 144 W thin-film UV-C reactor, we treated the milk with a flow rate of 3 L/min. We measured the bacterial count including standard plate count, coliform count, coagulase-negative staphylococci count, and lactic acid bacteria count and lipid peroxidation (via thiobarbituric acid reactive substances assay) pre- and post-treatment. Our results show that UV-C treatment significantly reduced bacterial counts, with the most notable reductions observed in high and medium initial load samples (>4 and 3-4 Log 10 CFU/mL, respectively). The treatment was particularly effective against coliforms, showing higher reduction efficiency compared to coagulase-negative staphylococci and lactic acid bacteria. Notably, lipid peroxidation in UV-C treated milk was significantly lower than in pasteurized or untreated milk, even after 72 hours. These findings demonstrate the potential of UV-C irradiation as a pre-treatment method for raw milk, offering substantial reduction in microbial content and prevention of lipid peroxidation, thereby enhancing milk quality.
