Yeast and Mould in Cream

Hi all,

There was complaint in cream and when we did yeast and mould testing, then orange colour colonies of yeast and black mould is detected.

Kindly help what colonies it could be and how can I confirm it apart from Microscopy?

I have more questions to ask you than you are asking  :biggrin:

Anyway, these are typical characteristics (orange yeast, black mold) of Y/M. Your lab should be able to identify. 

Was it over the limit? Did you have the product tested prior to receiving complaint? Was storage condition maintained throughout? 

The sample was passed before.

The count is over the limit now. And the conditions we are not sure of as the complaint has come from single sample from someone's home.
