Abstract: This research paper investigates the microbiological changes in camel milk peda during storage and the impact of different packaging techniques on its quality and safety. Initial total viable counts and the presence of yeast and mould in fresh camel milk peda samples are assessed, and their evolution during storage is monitored. The study reveals that the choice of packaging technique significantly influences bacterial growth, with vacuum packaging being the most effective in retarding microbial proliferation. However, mould growth remains a challenge in dairy products like peda, limiting their shelf life and quality. The findings underscore the importance of appropriate packaging methods and storage conditions in extending the shelf life and ensuring the microbiological safety of dairy-based sweets. This research contributes valuable insights into the preservation of dairy products and emphasizes the variability of microbial behavior in different food products and storage conditions.
