scope:
Specifies an horizontal method for the enumeration of coagulase positive Staphylococci in products intended for human consumption or feeding of animals obtained by most probable number technique. It is recommended for products where staphyloccocci are expected to be stressed and in low number as, for example, dried products. Coagulase-positive staphylococci will primarily be Staphylococcus aureus but Staphylococcus intermedius and some strains of Staphylococcus hyicus also produce free coagulase.
