The microbiological control involved the count of some microorganisms for example Staphylococcus spp and salmonella are researched. The results of this study indicate that goat
milk in Algeria is of bad microbiological quality exceeding the charges authorized by national
standards. The physic-chemical analysis of milk samples is performed by measuring their pH,
acidity. This parameters understood a simple pH measurement between 6.45 and 6.68, and
acidity between 14 and 18 ° D, on the biochemical composition, it does not reside difference
between milks, such solids with an average of 13.18%, with an average ash 0.53%, only the
