Studies on the effects of transport and storage on the bacteriological quality of raw milk.

Abstract

Certain aspects of Brisbane's milk supply are discussed and trends of air temperature and raw milk quality are illustrated graphically, using data obtained by testing 95,000 milk samples over a period of three years. The criterion adopted for deterioration in milk quality was the fall in reduction time, which is represented by the difference between the reduction time prior to incubation and the reduction time after the application of any given treatment.
