THE BOVINE MILK MICROBIOME
Mark McGuire
FLOW OF MILK FROM A FARM TO PROCESSOR
HOW TO ASSESS PRESENCE OF BACTERIA?Culture-dependent methods• Relies on specific culture media
conditions for specific bacterial genera/species (mostly pathogenic)
• Only see what you’re looking for
Culture-independent methods• Rely on molecular techniques and
specific primers
• Identification of bacterial taxa often related to genetic variation in 16S rRNAgene

COMPARISON OF METHODS WITH MILK• Compared various papers in the
literature that used culture dependent (CD) or independent (next generation DNA sequencing; NGS) methods
• Not necessarily directly comparable• Assumes similarity across all
samples within a species
• Breadth of assessment limited in some cases

No bacterial growth in 25-40% of milk samples from cows with clinical mastitis (Makovec and Ruegg (2003) J Dairy Sci 86:3466-3472; Bradley et al. (2007) Vet Rec 160:253-257; Taponen et al. (2009) J Dairy Sci92:2610-2617)§ Culture conditions are tailored to a pathogen of interest§ Conditions cannot meet the requirements of all microbes present§Nutrients; aerobic vs. anerobic growth§Biological functions of the host§<104 colony forming units/ml; culture 0.01 ml of milk; chance of growth?
Clearly there is a need for a method to identify bacteria without culture!

Grade “A” Pasteurized Milk Ordinance 2015 Revision
PASTEURIZED MILK ORDINANCE• All raw milk shall be cooled to 10 ºC within 4 hours of 1st milking and to 7 ºC
or less, within 2 hours after completion• All farm bulk milk tanks have approved temperature-recording device
Grade “A” Pasteurized Milk Ordinance 2015 Revision
IS RAW MILK SAFE?“Usually, the bacteria in milk are harmless, and if this were always true there would be no reason to cool milk, except to delay souring. There is; however, no way for the dairy operator or regulating officer to be absolutely sure that no disease bacteria have entered the milk, even though observance of the other Items of this Ordinance will greatly reduce this likelihood. The likelihood of transmitting disease is much increased when the milk contains large numbers of disease bacteria. Therefore, it is extremely important for milk to be cooled quickly, so that small numbers of bacteria, which may have entered the milk, will not multiply.”

IS RAW MILK SAFE?
Costard et al (2017) Emerging Infect Dis 23:957-964
• Risk associated with consumption of unpasteurized cow’s milk and cheese• Data from the National Outbreak Reporting System (US, 2009-2014)• Disease related to Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp.,
Listeria monocytogenes, and Campylobacter spp. from dairy products• 760 illnesses per year; 22 hospitalizations per year• Unpasteurized milk and cheese consumed by 3.2% and 1.6% of the
population, respectively, caused 96% of illnesses from contaminated dairy products

SUMMARY – MILK IS NOT STERILEWide variety of bacteria present in milk
§ At low concentrations <105 cfu/ml
Large variation in bacterial communities among cows, across farms, through processing• What are the major factors influencing the
variation?
Bacterial community changes with mastitis
Pathogenic bacteria are present in milk§ Factors driving presence have not been
clearly identified.
§ Also impacted throughout the milking system.
