Does the number of bacteria recorded by the standard plate count method accurately reflect the total bacterial count from the sample?
No. The standard plate count method is an indirect measurement of cell density of only viable bacterial cells. Optical density counting measure entire bacterial sample, the living as well as the dead bacterial cells.
What are the limitations and advantages of standard plate count?
The standard plate count is performed so that the number of microorganisms found in a single gram of food can be determined. To be considered standard, there needs to be a minimum of 25 colonies on the plate.
Why Plate Count Agar is used?
it is used to count the colonies
What is the difference between standard plate count and total plate count?
The white blood cell count and differential determine the number of white blood cells and the percentage of each type of white blood cell in a person's blood. These tests are included in general health examinations and help investigate a variety of illnesses, including infection, allergy, and leukemia. The white blood cell count provides a clue to the presence of illness. White cells protect the body by fighting infection and attacking foreign material. When extra white cells are needed, the bone marrow increases production. There are five types of white cells, each with different functions: neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils. The differential reveals if these cells are present in a normal distribution, or if one cell type is increased or decreased. This information helps diagnose specific types of illness. Conditions or medications that weaken the immune system, such as AIDS or chemotherapy, cause a decrease in white cells. The white cell count detects dangerously low numbers of white cells. Recovery from illness can be monitored by the white cell count. Counts continuing to rise or fall to abnormal levels indicate a worsening condition; counts returning to normal indicate improvement.
How do you keep heterotrophic plate count down?

no
There are other techniques for counting bacteria such as a direct microscopic count and turbidity Why is the standard plate count preferrend for food?
hehehe
Why is standard plate count an indirect measurement of cell density whereas spectrophotometric analysis is not a count at all?
go ask your mom

What is considered a high plate count?
Usually hundreds of colonies (>300) is considered as a high plate count.

Aerobic systems are more complex than standard septic systems
