Notes: The speed of ATP bioluminescence assays makes them very useful for assessing product quality and efficiency of sanitation at food plants. the suitability of a new method for evaluating the quality of raw milk was compared with plate count. A good correlation was obtained between the ATP method and plate count for milks with counts above 1 × 104 cfu/ml. the combination of ATP bioluminescence with preincubation procedures was investigated for predicting the shelf-life of pasteurized milk. the best correlations were obtained when milks were preincubated at 15C for 25 h or at 21C for 25 h in the presence of an inhibitor system to prevent Gram-positive bacterial growth.Hygiene monitoring using bioluminescence gave a better indication of surface cleaniness than conventional swab counts. the reasons for the discrepancies in a small percentage of cases are discussed.
