title: Bacteriological tests as indices for the development of off-flavours in cream.
abstract: Bacteriological tests alone are not capable of predicting the keeping quality of cream, since taints can develop which are due to non-bacterial action. When spoilage is due to bacterial growth, the water agar test was found to be more accurate than other tests that were examined.
