The microbiological test is one of the essential tests in determining the safety and quality of food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic products. For safety issues, microbiological tests are usually used to check for microbes in products, both disease-causing and spoilage, or functional microbes, so this test is a popular requirement in determining the quality of a food product. In addition, microbiological tests can also be used to test the efficacy of some products (e.g., disinfectant and antiseptic products).
