ABSTRACT
Clostridium species have been successfully enumerated in a rectangular, commercially available boil-in-bag pouch. One milliliter of raw milk and 45 ml of Te++-containing dextrose-free thioglycollate medium are sealed in the pouch, heated for 10 minutes at 80 C, and allowed to solidify. Hydrogen sulfide—producing colonies are enumerated after 48 hours at 37 C.
