Factors influencing detection and enumeration of Pseudomonas aeruginosa by most-probable-number and membrane filtration techniques.
Most-probable-number (MPN) and membrane filtration (mF) techniques were evaluated with respect to selectivity, sensitivity, and efficiency in recovering Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains in hospital fluids and extramural water environments. Known numbers of cells of a naturally occurring strain of P. aeruginosa maintained in distilled water or cells subcultured on Standard Methods agar were added ...
متن کاملA most-probable-number assay for enumeration of infectious Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts.
Cryptosporidium is globally established as a contaminant of drinking and recreational waters. A previously described cell culture infectivity assay capable of detecting infectious oocysts was adapted to quantify viable oocysts through sporozoite invasion and clustering of foci. Eight experiments were performed by using oocysts less than 4 months of age to inoculate host HCT-8 cell monolayers. O...
متن کاملTempo® Most Probable Number Technique for the Enumeration Yeasts and Moulds in Feed and Food Products
The large and diverse group of microscopic foodborne yeasts and moulds includes several hundred species. Both yeasts and moulds cause various degrees of deterioration and decomposition of food. They can invade and grow on virtually any type of food at any time, e.g. they invade field crops such as small grains, nuts, beans, tomatoes, and apples both in the field before harvesting and during sto...

متن کاملOvercoming the Inflexibility of Most-Probable-Number Procedures
The design of most-probable-number (MPN) experiments is restricted by the availability and completeness of tables for certain dilution ratio and replicate number combinations. The results presented in this paper are from a computer program, the Most Probable Number Enumeration System (MPNES), which generates solutions and confidence limits (P = 0.05) for population estimates of MPN data. Tables...
