Standard microbiological tests, Standard Plate Count, direct microscopic count, methylene blue reduction test, and several variations of the resazurin reduction test were correlated with fieldmen's ratings of sanitary condition of milking area, milk house, and milking utensils. Correlation coefficients were low, in general, approximately 0.2. The effect of different production facilities and practices on these correlations was variable. Results suggest that bacterial tests and fieldmen's inspection be used concurrently since they appear to measure different sanitary factors on the producing farms.
