This Standard sets out methods for the enumeration of Clostridium perfringens in foods. Two methods of examination are described as follows:(a) Spread plate method - this test is used for estimating the number of viable C. perfringens per specified unit of material under test.(b) Most probable number method - this test is used for estimating the most probable number (MPN) of C. perfringens per specified unit of material under test.
