| Abstract | ||||
| Different samples of imported full and skim milk powder in the Egyptian market were evaluated. The samples were analysed to study chemical composition (moisture, total solids, fat, lactose, protein and ash), and some functional properties as solubility, bulk density, total soluble solids and dispersibility. The results indicated that chemical composition and functional properties of the samples under study fall within the permissible standards. The standard plate count, Aerobic spore former count, mould and yeast count, Enterobacterial count, Coliform count, Enterococci, Staphylococci, and Pseudomonas and Aeromonas count were examined in both full and skim milk powder samples as well as determination of aflatoxin M1. Salmonel/a, was not detected in all of the examined milk powder samples. The detection of radiation reflected no radioactive contamination in the examined samples | ||||
