scored 36 and 41.3% respectively. The results of keeping quality tests depend on increase amount of enzymes recorded 10 good samples (13.3%), 8 fair (24%), 21 bad (28%) and 26 very bad samples (34.7%), with resazurine test. The amount of free oxygen in the simple catalase tube test was 0-2 in 12 good samples (16%), 2-5 in 24 fair samples (32%) and was bad in 39 samples (52%) more than 5cc free O 2 . In case of microbiological analysis the averages of total bacterial, coliform, yeast and mould counts were 4x10 6 , 9x10 3 , 12x10 3 and 3x10 3 /ml respectively. Examination for anaerobic spore-formers detected 25.3% of the examined samples. The public health importance of the counted organisms and the prophylactic measures to improve the quality of dairy farm milk were discussed.
