Table 2 Efficiency of phage-PMMS method in isolating and detecting MAP cells compared to MPN

From: Evaluation of the limitations and methods to improve rapid phage-based detection of viable Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis in the blood of experimentally infected cattle

Number of MAP Cells
MPN	Number of Plaques
10⁴	TNTC	TNTC	TNTC
10³	88	52	79
10²	0	5	4
10¹	0	0	0
10⁰	0	0	0

MPN most probable number method for determining number of MAP cells [22]
TNTC too numerous to count
