    abstract = {To determine the microbiological and chemical quality of Afyon clotted cream (<I>Afyon kaymagi</I>), a total 30 clotted cream samples were analyzed. As a result, total aerobic plate count was ≥10<SUP>4 </SUP>and ≥10<SUP>8</SUP> cfu g<SUP>-1</SUP> in 70 and 10% of the samples, respectively. Micrococci/staphylococci, enterobacteriaceae and coliform bacteria were 10<SUP>5</SUP> cfu g<SUP>-1</SUP> in 20% of the samples. <I>Pseudomonas</I> sp. were 10<SUP>5</SUP> cfu g<SUP>-1</SUP> in 10% of the samples. Enterococci and mould/yeast counts were ≥10<SUP>4</SUP> cfu g<SUP>-1</SUP> in 20 and 10% of the samples, respectively. Coagulase-positive staphylococci, <I>Escherichia coli</I>, <I>Bacillus cereus </I>and sulphite reducing anaerobic bacteria were not determined. The fat ratio was <60% in 20% of the samples. The fraudulent practice of the use of cow milk to substitute buffalo milk was commonly detected in <I>Afyon kaymagi</I>. Although, its chemical and hygienic quality is poor, it poses a minimal risk to public health with respect to pathogenic bacteria.}
