ResumoObjetivou-se verificar se as populações de Bacillus cereus presentes em leite em pó integral apresentam-se de acordo com a legislação vigente e também verificar diferença entre a presença desse microrganismo de acordo com o tipo de embalagem (lata e papel laminado). Para isso, foram adquiridas 40 amostras de leite em pó integral comercializadas no município de Ribeirão Preto, Estado de São Paulo. Cerca de 20% das amostras analisadas continham populações de B. cereus. Entretanto, todas estavam dentro dos limites aceitos pela legislação. Não foi verificada diferença significativa quando analisadas as populações presentes entre as diferentes apresentações do produto. Conclui-se que todas as amostras avaliadas estavam de acordo com a legislação vigente e, portanto, não há problemas na comercialização de leite em pó integral na região avaliada.Palavras-chave: laticínios, microbiologia de alimentos, saúde pública.
