Ein Computer-Programm zur quantitativen Bestimmung der Keimzahl mittels der Most-Probable-Number (MPN)-Methode

There are explained the statistical fundamentals of the estimation of the number of bacteria by means of the most-probable-number method (MPN method) inclusive of the confidence intervals and the probability of the sample results. On this basis, a program in Turbo-Pascal is prepared for the operating systems C/PM or MS-DOS for the computation of both single MPN estimations and complete tables inclusive of probability and confidence limits, their listing being appended.
