A Study on the Analysis of Errors occurred by Different Type of Automatic Bacteria Counting Equipments used in Counting Bacterial Number of Raw Milk

This study was conducted to analyze the errors occurred between standard plate count(SPC) and Bactometer, Malthus, Bactoscan and to investigate correlation coefficient(r) between SPC and each equipments for the purpose of making new calibration curve. Correlation coefficients of three different types of equipments to SPC value were 0.71, 0.81, 0.84 respectively(n=287) and that of three types of equipments were 0.71∼0.82 relatively low. In raw milk, correlation coefficients of three types of equipments of SPC were in the range of 0.67∼0.73 below 3.0${\times}10^4$(CUF/ml) of bacterial number, and those between the three types of equipments were 0.68∼0.72. Between 3.0${\times}10^4$∼5.0${\times}10^5$(CFU/ml) of bacterial number, correlation coefficients of the three different types of equipments were 0.71∼0.81. and those between the three different types of equipments were 0.64∼0.77. Over 5.0${\times}10^5$(CFU/ml), correlation coefficient of the three types equipments were 0.66∼0.83 and those between them were 0.70∼0.85 respectively. The error of the three different types equipments to SPC value was significantly high, 37∼53% of them was under 50% of error range, and in case of raw milk less than 3.0${\times}10^4$ of bacterial number, 44∼67% of them showed over 100% of error.
