  • Investigating Potential Environmental Sources for Coliforms in Cheddar Cheese Production

    Creator:
    Selover, Brandon J.
    Abstract:
    The production of Cheddar cheese is a complex process with multiple potential sources of undesirable bacteria, including those that have negative impacts on product quality (spoilage organisms) and those that are used to evaluate sanitary conditions in the production environment (indicator organisms). The dairy industry commonly uses coliform bacteria as...
