Reliability of the most-probable-number technique for enumerating rhizobia in tropical soils.
We used six rhizobium-legume systems to test the reliability of the most-probable-number (MPN) technique for enumerating rhizobia introduced into 14 sites representing four soil orders. The range-of-transition values (the number of dilution steps between the first not-entirely-positive and the last not-entirely-negative growth units) were compared for each species and for each soil. The probabi...
متن کاملRapid, single-step most-probable-number method for enumerating fecal coliforms in effluents from sewage treatment plants.
A single-step most-probable-number method for enumerating fecal coliforms in sewage treatment plant effluents is described. The method requires the use of only one lactose-based medium and a single incubation temperature of 44.5 degrees C, and it can be completed in 18 h or less, as compared with up to 72 h for the standard most-probable-number method. The appearance of growth is the sole crite...
متن کاملEvaluating most probable number method to count and isolate viable methylotrophs
Nine different receptacles were tested with the MPN method to determine which receptacle was most reliable and economical for MPN counts. Results showed that 96 well PCR plate were the best vessels for this type of analysis and facilitated the isolation of viable Methylotrophs.
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 کاملSurvivor curves for Leptospira autumnalis Akiyami A based on most-probable-number values.
The validity of survivor curves for Leptospira autumnalis Akiyami A based on most-probable-number values is supported by the following observations: (i) linear regression lines fell within most of the 95% confidence intervals; (ii) linear correlation coefficients (r) were consistently high (i.e., near -1); and (iii) statistical tests for goodness of fit usually accepted the linear model. These ...
