Characteristics of Microbial Colony Counts on Agar Plates for Food and Microbial Culture Samples
Microbial colony counts of concern of food products are one of the most important items in microbiological examinations. The distributions of colony counts per agar plate of food samples are considered to be reflected with microbial cell distributions in food homogenates.

Noise-free microbial colony counting method based on hyperspectral features of agar plates
A noise-free bacterial colony counting method identifying noise (i.e., sausage, bacon, and millet fragments) with similar colors or shapes to those of colonies was developed for food quality assessment. First, spectral features corresponding to colony cluster regions and background regions (agar medium and food fragments) were extracted after ...

Automated Counting of Microbial Colonies [PDF]
The time required for direct counting of colonies on agar plates for estimating population density of viable microorganisms has precluded studies requiring measurement of such a parameter. Bowman, Blume, and Vurek have described a photo-electrical capillary tube scanner which automates the counting.
