A 6-year-old Simental-Swiss Brown cross-bred cow, which aborted in the first trimester of the gestation and involuntarily presented anthrax bacilli around the udder, was subjected to this study. The cow was vaccinated with an attenuated anthrax vaccine (Bacillus anthracis 34 F2) 6 months ago and had normal physical examination findings. Samples taken 10 days after the abortion were representative of all possible spaces that could carry the bacteria such as milk, blood, environment, and swabs from rectum, udder and tits of an infected cow. Microbiological examination was carried out by staining the smears with Azure and in vitro culture of …

The aim of this study is to perform microbiological, physical, and chemical analyses of the samples from producers who continuously bring milk to 30 actively operating milk collection centers throughout the spring, summer, autumn, and winter seasons in Kastamonu Province and determine whether the identified values are within legal limits. For microbiological properties of milk included in the research, total aerobic mesophilic bacteria (TAMB) and coliform group bacteria counts were identified. For the determination of physical and chemical properties, dry matter, fat, nonfat dry matter, lactose, protein, ash, pH, titratable acidity, refractive index, and specific gravity values were identified and …
