Abstract
Campylobacters and salmonellas were isolated respectively from 6 and 0.2% of samples of unpasteurized cow's milk on sale to the public. There was a significant association between the presence of Escherichia coli and that of Campylobacter jejuni. The mean E. coli count was also higher in campylobacter‐positive samples. Enumeration of E. coli would seem to have value as an indicator of faecal contamination and thus potential hazard in raw milk.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
