Abstract

This research evaluated the physical and chemical quality of 72 samples of crude milk from 9 farms in the Gameleira region, municipality of Sacramento, MG, Brazil, and 12 milk samples from the same farms collected from a community milk tank. Values for titratable acidity, density, cryoscopy, fat, total dry extract, defatted dry extract were determined (BRASIL, 1981). Results showed that 10 (13.9%) samples did not comply with at least one physical and chemical item required by Norm 51. The 12 milk samples from the community tank analyzed during the assay complied with Norm 51 for physical and chemical requirements. The use of community tank actually provides satisfactory quality milk with regard to its physical and chemical characteristics.
