The standard plate count method is preferred for counting bacteria in food because it provides a simple and reliable way to determine the number of viable bacteria present. It allows for the cultivation of various types of bacteria which may be present in the sample, providing a more accurate representation of the bacterial population. Additionally, the standard plate count method is well-established, widely accepted, and can be easily standardized for regulatory purposes in the food industry.


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 is the standard for aerobic plate count?

The standard for aerobic plate count, also known as aerobic colony count or Total Viable Count (TVC), is typically expressed in colony-forming units per milliliter (CFU/ml) or per gram (CFU/g) of sample. The acceptable limits can vary depending on the type of product or industry, but generally, lower counts indicate better hygiene and quality of the sample.


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.
