Summary.
Milk and dairy products are placed in the first
group of risk because they can cause human diseases agent transmission. There
is a risk of alimentary staphylococcal toxicosis, in
the case of non-compliance with veterinary and sanitary requirements for the
primary processing of raw materials, manufacture and realization of finished
products. The aim of this study was to estimate a level of milk and dairy ‘home-made’
products contamination with coagulase positive staphylococci, to determine the
biological origin of Staphylococcus aureus, isolated from dairy products, and its ability
to produce enterotoxins. The article presents the results of raw milk and dairy
products study from private (‘home-made’) production, which are
selling at agro-food markets in Ukraine. Bacteria of the genus Staphylococcus are isolated from raw
milk and dairy products in 80.3–93.3% of cases. Coagulase positive
Staphylococcus species were isolated from sour cream — in 57.8% of
cases, which was 1.7 times more in comparison with the samples of raw milk
and was 2.5 times more in comparison with curd. Two biotypes of Staphylococcus aureus
(S. aureus
var. bovis
and S. aureus
var. hominis)
were isolated from samples of raw milk and dairy ‘home-made’ products,
which were realized at the markets. In this case, 46.6 ± 3.1%
of isolated cultures were classified as a biotype S. aureus
var. bovis,
and 53.4 ± 3.7% — to human ecovar.
It means that the main source of contamination of ‘home-made’ cream
by staphylococcus is people who do not follow proper hygiene and sanitation
during the producing process, namely: milking of cows, primary processing of
raw milk, production and realizing of dairy products. It was
found that S. aureus var. hominis had produced type A of enterotoxin in raw milk
and dairy products of private (‘home-made’) production, which,
generally, is cause of food toxicosis in humans.
