This study was conducted with the purpose of determining its effects of dairy by-products on some microbial properties of meatball. For this purpose, whey protein concentrate powder, buttermilk powder and lactose powder were used as dairy by-product. In this study, in addition, the meat used as the raw materials, meatballs were prepared by using different combination (1-2, 5-5%) and of whey protein concentrate powder, buttermilk powder, lactose powder and some physical- chemical, textural and sensorial analyses were applied on these meatballs. pH, moisture, water activity, and total mesophilic bacteria contents were analyzed at 0, 5 and 10 days. Days for raw and cooked meatballs; protein and ash contents were analyzed at 0. Day for raw meatballs. The control samples have the highest total mesophilic aerobic bacteria count. It is observed that milk by-products decrease the total mesophilic aerobic bacteria countwith a positive correlation by the concentration. As a result; it may be advised that the dairy by-products can be used to reduce total aerobic bacteria count without any negative effect on sensory.
