scope:
Specifies a method for the enumeration of coagulase-positive staphylococci in all types of milk and milk products. It is recommended for products where staphylococci are expected to be stressed and in low numbers as, for example, dried milk products. Coagulase-positive staphylococci will primarily be Staphylococcus aureus but Staphylococcus intermedius and some members of Staphylococcus hyicus also produce free coagulase.
