Summary

The major contamination sources of Bacillus cereus were soil and faeces. In winter when cows are housed, used bedding probably also participates in this contamination route. The udder will be contaminated, finally resulting in the presence of these organisms in raw milk. Of the strains isolated from raw milk 30% were able to grow at 7 deg C.
