Raw milk has several microbiological and health benefits but due to its nutritional properties, raw milk also creates good growth conditions for a variety of spoilage and potentially pathogenic microorganisms, such as Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC), Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella enterica, Campylobacter spp., Yersinia spp. and some others. Raw milk may also contain mastitis-causing agents, such as Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus agalactiae and zoonotic pathogens, such as Coxiella burnetii, Toxoplasma gondii, Leptospira hardjo, tick-borne encephalitis virus and some others which can be excreted with milk and are potentially hazardous to humans. Present study was supported by the Estonian Ministry of Agriculture project 8-2/T13091VLTO with the main aim to estimate the safety and quality indicators of raw milk intended for direct selling to customers.
