Regarding the posts about bright pink milk, the pathogen Serratia marcescens produces a characteristic bright pink pigment and has been reported to contaminate breast pumps. There is a recent article that may be of interest:


Faro J, Katz A, Berens P, Ross PJ. Premature termination of nursing secondary to Serratia marcescens breast pump contamination. Obstetrics and Gynecology 2011; 117:485-486.
