Organization of veterinary and sanitary examination of raw milk, requirements of normative documents for milk quality safety indicators

Abstract

Raw cow's milk has high nutritional and dietary value. Raw milk obtained from sick animals, as well as milk produced in violation of hygienic, sanitary and technological norms and rules, can cause human poisoning, infection with zooanthroponous and foodborne diseases. This article presents recommendations on the organization and conduct of veterinary examination of milk and its veterinary and sanitary assessment, based on a documentary analysis of the requirements of the technical regulations of the Customs Union CU TR 033/2013 and TR CU 021/2011 and the veterinary rules for the appointment and conduct of veterinary and sanitary examination of milk and dairy products intended forworks or for sale in retail markets dated 06/28/2021, as amended on 05/24/2022. Based on the results of studies of the rules of veterinary and sanitary examination of milk dated 06/28/2021. Based on the results of studies of the rules of veterinary and sanitary examination of milk dated 06/28/2021, we found that they do not require the determination of such indicators in milk as: the group of milk purity, the presence of inhibitory substances and the freezing point of milk, although these indicators are present in TR CU 033/2013, at the same time, the rules prescribe the determination of coli titer in raw milk, while time, as in the Technical Regulations, this indicator is not prescribed for raw milk.
