(criterion) m/M Explanation: See discussion Symboles et termes utilisés dans les plans d’échantillonnage https://www.anses.fr/fr/system/files/MIC2007sa0174.pdf Symbols and terms used in sampling plans ... - m: the numerical value m represents the limit for micro-organism concentrations representing a satisfactory microbiological amount, concentrations which are usually expressed as the number of cfu (colony forming units) per g or ml. In a two-class plan, m distinguishes the satisfactory microbiological quality units from unsatisfactory quality units and in a three-class plan, m distinguishes satisfactory quality units from acceptable quality units. The numerical values of m generally correspond to satisfactory levels through application of good hygiene practices. Noncompliance with the m value requires corrective action. - M (three-class plans only): represents the unsatisfactory micro-organism concentration limit usually expressed as the number of cfu per g or ml. Failure to comply with this limit represents unacceptable or uncontrolled conditions and/or those carrying a risk to health, depending on the criterion. M distinguishes acceptable quality units from unsatisfactory quality units. If the value of a single sample unit exceeds M the sample unit or batch from which the sample has been obtained is unacceptable. https://www.anses.fr/en/system/files/MIC2007sa0174EN.pdf |
