He is considered that about 20 to 30% of the production of bovine milk in Brazil is marketed without sanitary inspection, or appropriate thermal treatment. Therefore, it is of great importance to evaluate the milk in these places, like this, the study had as objective analyzes the physiochemical characteristics in samples of raw milk marketed in the municipal district of Pombal, Paraíba, Brazil. Samples were collected of each one of the five commercialization places, among the months of May and June of 2017, for subsequent characterization as for the pH, ashes, proteins, fat, lactose and solids no greasy. The obtained results demonstrated that the sample B was the one that presented larger number of no conformities. Already the sample A introduced no conformity just in relation to the pH, being verified the value of 6,42. As for the fat tenor, all of the samples were inside of the established patterns for the Brazilian legislation. The lactose tenors varied from 4,10% to 5,52% and they were inside of the intervals of values found by other authors. In spite of the milk to be considered informal, the results for the samples C, D and AND they were inside of the established patterns for the legislation for all of the analyzed parameters.
