The importance of micro-flora in dairy products cannot be overemphasised. Although
there are scores of academic papers that elucidated on this subject, however, to the best knowledge
of the researcher, there is no published paper that compares the composition of the traditional fermented
camel milk products. Therefore, this paper aims to compare the preparation methods,
chemical compositions, microbial counts and pH, isolation and identification of lactic acid bacteria,
as well as yeasts in Gariss, Suusac, and Shubat. Through comparative analysis of previous existing
published papers, the researcher discovered that different preparation methods of these three products
have effects on their chemical compositions, microbial counts and pH, and as well as growth of
lactic acid bacteria and yeast species.
