This Standard sets out a rapid method for enumerating Escherichia coli in bivalve molluscs using a membrane plate technique. This method will detect both typical E. coli and lactose non-fermenting or anaerogenic variants.NOTES: 1 Other methods for examination of foods, including molluscs, for coliforms and E.coli are given in AS 1766.2.3.2 A flow diagram of the examination procedure is shown in Figure 1.
