The most probable number method, otherwise known as the method of Poisson zeroes, is a method of getting quantitative data on concentrations of discrete items from positive/negative (incidence) data. Purpose
The Petri dish is then incubated. The most probable number method (MPN) can also be performed for products considered to have a low bioburden [clarification needed]. The MPN is considered to be one of the least accurate tests. [4] The bioburden quantification is expressed in colony forming unit (CFU).
Instead of colony-forming units, the parameters Most Probable Number (MPN) and Modified Fishman Units (MFU) [29] can be used. The Most Probable Number method counts viable cells and is useful when enumerating low concentrations of cells or enumerating microbes in products where particulates make plate counting impractical.

Values greater than 126 MPN (most probable number) in tests for E. coli are considered to pose an increased risk of illness for swimmers. Values of greater than 886 MPN create increased risk in ...

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force released a draft recommendation advising against using vitamin D to prevent falls and fractures in people over 60. Pharmacist Katy Dubinsky weighs in.
An A1 broth is a liquid culture medium used in microbiology for the detection of fecal coliforms in foods, treated wastewater and seawater bays using the most probable number (MPN) method. It is prepared according to the formulation of Andrews and Presnell given below. [1]
