Milk samples, coliform bacteria, cow

Sequential milk samples collected from 6 to 36 hours after Escherichia coli infection in a quarter of a cow. Peak bacterial numbers in milk occurred at 12 hours after infection (second vial from the left) when milk still appeared normal and the cow was subclinically affected.
