Abstract
Results of mold tests of the dried skim milk imported into Japan were as follows:1) Molds were isolated from 51.9% of the samples tested.2) Correlation coefficients between mold counts and bacterial counts were positively significant, However, in the samples with extreme high mold and bacterial counts (mold counts 1, 000/g, bacterial counts 3, 000/g), this correlation could not be seen.3) No correlation could not be found between mold counts and such chemical factors as moisture and acidity.4) The samples packed in paper bags gave higher mold counts than those in paper drums.5) In general, domestic samples gave smaller mold counts than imported ones.
