The calves have an immature immune system as they lack immunoglobulins (Igs). Subsequently, the supply of good quality bovine colostrum is required. The quality of colostrum is classified by low bacterial counts and adequate Ig concentrations. Bacterial contamination can contain a variety of human pathogens or high counts of spoilage bacteria, which has become more challenging with the emerging use of bovine colostrum as food and food supplements. There is also a growing risk for the spread of zoonotic diseases originating from bovines. For this reason, processing based on heat treatment or other feasible techniques is required. This review provides an overview of literature on the microbial quality of bovine colostrum and processing methods to improve its microbial quality and keep its nutritional values as food. The highlights of this review are as follows: high quality colostrum is a valuable raw material in food products and supplements; the microbial safety of bovine colostrum is increased using an appropriate processing-suitable effective heat treatment which does not destroy the high nutrition value of colostrum; the heat treatment processes are cost-effective compared to other methods; and heat treatment can be performed in both small- and large-scale production."}],"page":"556-575","keyword":["bovine colostrum","bacteria","pathogens","probiotic bacteria","cost-effective processing","heat treatment","pasteurization","contamination control","immunoglobulins","enzymes"]},{"status":"public","department":[{"_id":"DEP4010"}],"year":"2018","user_id":"83781","page":"5074-5081","abstract":[{"text":"BACKGROUND\r\nFruits and vegetables have increasingly been related to foodborne outbreaks. Besides surface contamination, a possible internalization of microorganisms into edible parts of plants during growth has already been observed. To examine an actual risk for the consumer, microbial contamination of the rind and pulp of 147 muskmelons from international trade was assessed using cultural and biochemical methods, polymerase chain reaction and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry.\r\nRESULTS\r\nOne hundred percent of the rind samples [3.69–8.92 log colony forming units (CFU) g−1] and 89.8% of the pulp samples (maximum load 3.66 log CFU g−1) were microbiologically contaminated. Among the 432 pulp isolates, opportunistic and potentially pathogenic bacteria were identified, mainly Staphylococcus spp. (48.9%), Clostridium spp. (42.9%) and Enterobacteriaceae (27.9%). Salmonella spp., Escherichia coli and isolates of the Bacillus cereus group were found on the rind (1.4%, 0.7% and 42.9%, respectively) and in the pulp (0.7%, 1.4% and 4.7%). Clostridium perfringens was isolated from the rind of seven melons.\r\nCONCLUSION\r\nThe present study revealed a regularly occurring internal contamination of melons. Possible health risks for consumers because of an occurrence of microorganisms in melon pulp should be considered in future food safety assessments. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.","lang":"eng"}],"keyword":["foodborne pathogens","Salmonella","Listeria monocytogenes","Enterobacteriaceae","vegetables"],"extern":"1","publisher":"Wiley","type":"scientific_journal_article","quality_controlled":"1","date_updated":"2025-06-18T11:32:30Z","doi":"10.1002/jsfa.9045","issue":"13","publication":"Journal of the science of food and agriculture : incorporating Agri-Biotech","_id":"12974","volume":98,"publication_status":"published","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_created":"2025-06-15T10:28:46Z","citation":{"ieee":"I.
