<![CDATA[The study aimed to identify the total number of E. coli used in fresh cow milk in KPSP Ijen Makmur. The sample was used by as many as 16 samples from a group of cattle farmers. E. coli analyzed using Most Probable Number (MPN), 3 series of tubes.

Results showed that from the 16 samples of fresh milk used there were 7 samples of fresh milk that exceeded the contamination limit E. coli or < 3 apm /ml.
