Computation of Most Probable Numbers
AUTOR(ES)
Russek, Estelle
RESUMO
A rapid computational method for maximum likelihood estimation of most-probable-number values, incorporating a modified Newton-Raphson method, is presented. The method offers a much greater reliability for the most-probable-number estimate of total viable bacteria, i.e., those capable of growth in laboratory media.
