Abstract

A total of 120  random samples of raw milk were collected from dairy farms, farmers houses, street vendors and milk powder ( 30 samples each )  in clean, dry and sterile containers from  different localities in Assiut  city , Egypt . From  January to October , 2018. The results  showed that the  Incidence  of  Helicobacter species  in the examined raw milk  collected from (  dairy farms , farmers houses ,  street vendors )  and milk powder samples  were 4 (1.33 %) , 3 ( 1.00% ) , 5 (1.66 % ) and 1 ( 0.33 % )  respectively ,  While the  Incidence of  Helicobacter pylori  in the same samples of  examined raw milk and milk powder  samples were 2 (0.66 %) , 2 ( 0.66% ) , 3 (1.00 % ) and 0 ( 0.00 % )  respectively ,  That means that  the  frequency  distribution of Helicobacter pylori to Helicobacter species in the examined raw milk and milk powder  samples  were 50 ,66.6,60 and 0.00 % respectively , and  the Degree  of sensitivity  of   Helicobacter pylori  to both Tetracycline  30mg ,  Cephalothine 30 mg and Ampicillin  10 μg were  high  sensitive   ( 100 % ) , while that the Degree  of sensitivity  of  it  to Clarithromycin  15 mg  and  Erythromycin 5 μg  were  moderate  sensitive  (75%)  and  low  sensitive to  Augmentin  10 mg    (50%) . in other hand  Helicobacter pylori    were   Resistant  to  both     Amoxicillin  10 mg   and  Unasyn  20 mg .The healthy importance of Helicobacter pylori and methods  of control  are discussed.
