QUESTION

Which is maximum SPC for pasteurized milk?

OPTIONS

(A) 0/ml
(B) 100/ml
(C) 30,000/ml
(D) 1 lac/ml

ANSWER

(C) 30,000/ml

EXPLANATION

The referenced standard sets the maximum standard plate count for pasteurized milk at about 30,000 organisms per millilitre. Zero or 100/ml are unrealistically stringent for ordinary pasteurized milk, while 100,000/ml exceeds the cited limit. Hence, option (C) is correct.
