[F1Interpretation of the test results U.K.
The limits given refer to each sample unit tested.
The test results demonstrate the microbiological quality of the process tested.
Enterobacteriaceae in dried infant formulae, dried dietary foods for special medical purposes intended for infants below six months of age and dried follow-on formulae:
satisfactory, if all the values observed indicate the absence of the bacterium,
unsatisfactory, if the presence of the bacterium is detected in any of the sample units.
E. coli , Enterobacteriaceae (other food categories) and coagulase-positive staphylococci:
satisfactory, if all the values observed are ≤ m,
acceptable, if a maximum of c/n values are between m and M, and the rest of the values observed are ≤ m,
unsatisfactory, if one or more of the values observed are > M or more than c/n values are between m and M.
Presumptive Bacillus cereus in dried infant formulae and dried dietary foods for special medical purposes intended for infants below six months of age:
satisfactory, if all the values observed are ≤ m,
acceptable, if a maximum of c/n values are between m and M, and the rest of the values observed are ≤ m,
unsatisfactory, if one or more of the values observed are > M or more than c/n values are between m and M.]
