Abstract

The microbiological quality of four brands of natural yogurts and two probiotic yogurts available in the Portuguese market, was evaluated during the shelf-life period. Although the specific flora decreased during storage it was always within the range of recommended values. No coliforms and an insignificant number of fungi were detected.
