ABSTRACT
In this study, the effect of the Lactoperoxidase LP
system on antimicrobial activity, aerobic count, alcohol test and lactoperoxidase
activity were determined in raw cow milk collected locally in Chiang Mai,
Thailand, during summer season March-April 2006. The active LP system
was found to greatly increase the Keeping Quality KQ of all milk samples
both untreated and Escherichia coli treated samples. In
addition, in the presence of the LP system, the decrease in microbial
contamination was observed at the rate of 87 untreated milk sample,
treatment B and 78 E. coli treated milk sample, treatment C,
respectively. Present results clearly demonstrate that the LP system can
serve as an alternative method to control the microbial growth in cow
milk.
