Rapid bioluminometric enumeration of microorganisms in ground beef

Use of the bioluminometric ATP assay was evaluated for estimating total bacterial counts in ground beef. Minimum sensitivity was found to be 10⁶ cfu/g using a double filtration procedure for sample preparation. Although ATP content per cfu decreased approximately 10 fold during storage, correlation...
