Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the effect of the milking system on the bacterial count in raw milk. This experiment was conducted on different milk samples taken from two different Aleppo systems. .The results showed significant differences (0.05) in the bacterial count of manual and automatic milking samples for bacterial types Bacteria (bacillus, staphylococcus, salmonella, E.coli , Streptococcus and micrococcus) (25, 16,7,25,0,8,0,25,16,7,16,8) respectively, where the results showed that the milking mechanism is better than manual milking. The results also showed significant differences at the mean level (0> 0.05) ). The acidity of milk in both manual and automatic milking samples was significantly lower than that in the manual milking machine (0.11 ± 0.01,0.19 ± 0.21) respectively. This was in favor of machine milking.
