Section 410IAC7-21-21. "Micro-organisms" defined  


Latest version.
  •    "Micro-organisms" means yeasts, molds, bacteria, protozoa, and viruses and includes, but is not limited to, species having public health significance. The term "undesirable micro-organisms" includes those micro-organisms that are of public health significance and those of nonpublic health significance that result in food spoilage or that indicate that food is contaminated with filth, or that otherwise may cause food to be adulterated. "Microbial" is used in some instances instead of using an adjectival phrase containing the word micro-organism.
