Abstract One hundred random samples of cow and buffalo hand and machine milking (25 of each) were collected from different localities at Sharkia Governorate, Egypt in a sterile bottle and transferred to the laboratory in ice-box to maintain its chemical and microbiological status unchangeable. Each sample was mixed thoroughly before being divided into three parts. The first was examined for incidence of mastitis, the second for chemical examination, while the last one was used for bacteriological examination. The results of CMT reveal that 12(48%) of the examined cow hand milking samples were negative and 13(52%) were positive while in case of examined cow machine milking samples 11(44%) were negative and 14(560/0) were positive. In case of buffalo milk, the results show that 15(60%) of the examined hand milking samples were negative and 1 0(40%) were positive while in case of examined machine milking samples 14(56%) were negative and 11(44%) were positive. The MSCC/ml. was studied and reveals that negative samples contained less than 4x 1 05 MSCC/ml., while the positive ones contained higher numbers of MSCC exceeded 5xl06/ml. The chemical examination of normal and mastitis cow hand milking samples reveal that the mean values of fat%, protein%, lactose%, SNF%, minerals% and chlorides% were |
