Use of the A-1M method, which was originally devised for testing water samples, has recently been extended for enumeration of fecal coliforms and Escherichia coli in shellfish and other food products. Results of our study indicate that while this method is reliable for analysis of growing waters, the use of the A-1M method for testing Pacific oysters may be less reliable because bacteria not belonging to the coliform group but which are sometimes present in these animals also give a positive reaction.
最初设计用于检测水样的A-1M方法,最近已扩展到用于计数贝类和其他食品中的粪大肠菌群和大肠杆菌。我们的研究结果表明,虽然这种方法在分析生长水域时可靠,但用于检测太平洋牡蛎时可能不太可靠,因为不属于大肠菌群但有时存在于这些动物中的细菌也会产生阳性反应。
