ABSTRACT
Thirty samples of ewe's milk collected from apparently healthy ewes in the North Western Coastal Desert of Egypt, were examined microbiologically. The mean acidity% was 0.14% while the mean values of total bacterial count, coliforms, fecal coliforms, staphylococci, yeasts and molds were 8.2 x 10 4, 6.2 x 10 2, 2.4 x 10 2, 1.3 x 10 3, 4.1 x 10 2 and 6 x 10 ml, respectively. Escherichia coli, Enterobacter cloacae, Ent. agglomerans, Klebsiella oxytoca, Kl. pneumoniae, Citrobacter freundii, Staphylococcus aureus and Staph. epidermidis could be isolated with percentage varied from 10.1% to 20%. Suggestive control measures for improving the hygienic quality of ewe's milk were discussed
