The main microbiological hazards of raw milk cheese are associated with Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Due to its high nutritional value, cheese is an excellent medium for the growth of these pathogens. This study was aimed to observe microbial dynamics of Bulgarian white brined cheese during cheese production and ripening. Microbiological analysis included determination of Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria spp. and Escherichia coli counts. Some physicochemical parameters, such as total titratable acidity, sodium chloride content, water activity and pH were also examined. Results revealed statistically significant increase in bacterial counts after cheesemaking steps and decrease at the end of the ripening period. Listeria monocytogenes was not detected in any of the cheese samples. Raw milk cheese was of unsatisfactory quality that emphasises the need for applying and maintaining good hygiene practices along the food chain to prevent microbial contamination and growth
