Investigation of factors contributing to the bacterial count of bulk tank milk. II. Bacteria in milk from individual cows.

TLDR
Standard plate counts were made of milk from individual cows, using samples taken from the pails after machine-milking with University-sanitized equipment, finding that the bacterial count had a higher mean and greater variability than is sometimes assumed.

Cow Teat Skin, a Potential Source of Diverse Microbial Populations for Cheese Production

TL;DR: This study highlighted the large diversity of the bacterial community that may be found on teat skin, where 79.8% of clones corresponded to various unidentified species as well as 66 identified species, mainly belonging to those commonly found in raw milk.

Predominant Microflora of Downgraded Danish Bulk Tank Milk

TL;DR: The microflora of downgraded Danish bulk tank milk was examined to identify the main causes of increased microbial counts and no relationship was found between somatic cell counts and the presence of mastitis bacteria.

Understanding and preventing consumer milk microbial spoilage and chemical deterioration

TL;DR: This chapter gives a broad overview of the possible spoilage defects in consumer milk, being either of a microbiological nature ( e.g. spore formers and Pseudomonas enzymes) or of a chemical nature (e.g., light-induced oxidation).

Investigation of factors contributing to the bacterial count of bulk-tank milk. I. Influence of two-day storage and effect on results of preliminary incubation.

TL;DR: Investigation of the effect of storage in the bulk-tank with alternate-day collection on Standard plate count of milk found preliminary incubation had a greater effect on the counts of milk that had been stored under refrigeration than on those of unstored milk.
