[Sanitary-and-epidemiological control of the quality of dairy foods].
At the Federal state health facility of the Perm Region--the Center of Hygiene and Epidemiology, the authors have carried out chemical and bacteriological tests (n = 410) of 70 raw milk samples taken at various points of sale to examine for compliance with the standards stimulated in the normative SanPin documents. The conventional methods were used to study a number of chemical, biochemical, and bacteriological parameters that characterized freshness, density, acidity, the content of toxic elements, mycotoxins, antibiotics, pesticides, radionuclides, the total number of microbes, etc. The quality and nutritive value of the test milk were characterized according to the findings. The main conclusion of the study was that in quite a number of cases, analyses of the private farm milk sold by farmers on the municipal markets and unpretested by the specialists of the territorial Russian consumer supervisory boards revealed that it was not up to the standards for the quality of the product itself and the material of its package. Unexposed to heat treatment, raw milk should not be used since it may occasionally adversely affect human health.
