Calculation9.1 Compute the number of positive findings resulting frommultiple-portion decimal dilution planting as the combinationof positives and recorded as MPN (see Standard Methods9221).9.2 When more than three series of tubes are employed in ade
35、cimal series of dilutions, use the results from only three ofthese used in computing the MPN, for example:10mL1mL0.1mL0.01mL5/5 5/5 2/5 0/5 = 5-2-0 10 = 490/100 mL5/5 4/5 2/5 0/5 = 5-4-2 = 220/100 mL5/5 3/5 1/5 1/5 = 5-3-2 = 140/100 mL5/5 0/5 0/5 0/5 = 5-0-0 = 23/100 mL10. Report10.1 Perform a Log10
36、transformation and report the resultsas Log10MPN SRB/100 mL of sample.11. Precision and Bias11.1 Microbial populations are dynamic in culture. Conse-quently a full interlaboratory study is infeasible. However, anevaluation of method precision was performed and reported.611.2 Unless a large number of
37、 portions of sample areexamined, the precision of the MPN is rather low. For example,even when the sample contains one organism per millilitre,about 37 % of tubes inoculated with 1 mL of sample may beexpected to yield negative results because of irregular distri-bution of the bacteria in the sample
38、and the multiple attachmentof bacteria to particles. When five tubes, each with 1 mL ofsample, are employed under these conditions, a completelynegative result may be expected less than 1 % of the time.11.2.1 RepeatabilityThe difference between successivemeasured Log10MPN SRB/100 mL values obtained
39、by thesame operator from replicate subsamples of a given sample.The repeatability coefficient, r = 2.8 sr, where sris therepeatability standard deviation.11.2.2 ReproducibilityThe difference between two singleand independent Log10MPN SRB/100 mL values obtained bydifferent operators on replicate subs
40、amples of a given sampleunder nominally identical test conditions. The Reproducibilitycoefficient, R = 2.8 sR, where sRis the reproducibility standarddeviation.11.2.3 For both Starkeys Medium A (7.3) and StarkeysMedium B (7.4) Log10MPN/100 mL, results obtained on fivereplicate tests by two analysts
41、were statistically indistinguish-able at the 95 % confidence level, as determined by two-wayanalysis of variance (Fobs, 1,1= 0.26; Fcrit 1,1 =0.95= 4.49).Averages (X), standard deviations (srand sR), r and R aresummarized in Table 1.11.3 BiasSince there is no accepted reference materialsuitable for
42、determining the bias of the procedure, bias cannotbe determined.12.
