Spoilage potential of Pseudomonas species isolated from goat milk

Pseudomonas spp. are usually associated with spoilage microflora of dairy products due to their proteolytic potential. This is of particular concern for protein-based products, such as goat milk cheeses and fermented milks. Therefore, the goal of the present study was to characterize the proteolytic activity of Pseudomonas spp. isolated from goat milk. Goat milk samples (n = 61) were obtained directly from bulk tanks on dairy goat farms (n =...
