USP and USP are often performed together — but they answer different microbiological questions.

✔ USP measures total microbial counts, including:

Total aerobic bacteria
Yeast and mold

✔ USP detects specified pathogens such as:

E. coli
Salmonella
Staphylococcus aureus
Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Why run both?

Because a product can pass total microbial limits while still containing objectionable organisms.

Combined testing helps support:

Product release decisions
