The present of study was planned to detect of antibiotic susceptibility of Bacillus cereus isolated from dairy products at Al-Qasim city.

60 samples were collected randomly from raw milk and dairy products (raw milk, cheese and yoghurt) then transport to the laboratory in ice-cooled box for analyzer .biochemical tests and chromogenic agar was used to detect Bacillus cereus.

The result showed that positive culture of Bacillus cereus 9(45%) , 12 (60%) and 3 (15%) respectively from raw milk, cheese and yoghurt.

Antibiotic susceptibility showed that B.

cereus isolates were high sensitive to Erythromycin , Ciprofloxacin , Tetracycline ,Gentamicin and Chloramphenicol, while its was high resistance to Ampicillin.
