RESUMO

In 2002, the Brazilian government implemmented the Normative Instruction 51 (IN-51) establishing an important step to improve milk quality in this country. According to the patterns required by the IN-51, this study was conducted with 183 samples of raw milk collected from different properties, during the summer of 2006, in the State of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The evaluated milk was produced in properties regulated by the state inspection service and the parameters used were from this national legislation: total bacterial count, somatic cell count, milk composition (fat, protein, total solids, lactose and solids non fat), freezing point and qualitative tests for detection of inhibitory substances in milk. Questionnaires containing questions about hygienic and production practices were filled out during interviews with the producers. It was verified that the main disagreement with the IN-51 patterns was total bacterial count. The conclusion of the study is that poor hygienic practices during milking and low level of technical informations were the major problem for milk quality
