Milk is initially sterile, but it can become contaminated by microorganisms from the mammary duct and the surrounding environment, including hands, milking machines, and utensils. Common milkborne infections include streptococcus infections, shigellosis, and salmonellosis. Other infections transmitted through unpasteurized milk include listeriosis, brucellosis, and yersiniosis.
