The objective of this investigation is to focus on such microbial changes, which are a consequence
of unhygienic practices during production, incomplete fermentation and poor storage conditions. In India
different fermented products are prepared from milk. These products are mostly intended primarily to conserve
the nutritional values of milk. However, since most of these products are flavored and sweetened, these are
mostly consumed during festival seasons. Like m ilk these products not only provide nutrients, but also are
excellent media for the growth of microorganisms. Microbial growth is seen in the results, which involves
successive changes with enteric or food related factors leading to incidence of food poisoning and deterioration
of product. Isolation of coliphages is an indication of presence of other phages which could be aetiology of
certain improper fermentation due to lack of proper inoculum.
Key words: Coliphages, dahi, lassi, shrikhand, total bacterial count, yeast mould count,
