2. A researcher analyzes unpasteurized apple juice suspecting E. coli
contamination of the juice. He/she plates out 0.1 mL of a 102 dilution of juice on
each plate and grows up the plates. He/she then counts colonies on each plate.
Plate 1- 242 colonies
Plate 2 - 237 colonies
Plate 3- 249 colonies

(a) Calculate the CFU/mL for this juice. Show formula used and include units.
(b) If acceptable levels of E. coli in juice were 0.02 CFU/ml juice, would this juice
be acceptable for human consumption?
