ORTEGA GONZALEZ, Meylín; RODRIGUEZ MARTINEZ, Claudio  e  ZHURBENKO, Raisa. Validation of alternative methods for microbiological analysis of foods and water. Qualitative methods. Rev Cubana Hig Epidemiol [online]. 2010, vol.48, n.2, pp.162-176. ISSN 0253-1751.

Internationally the demands for the adoption of new microbiological methods for the analysis of waters and foods have increased. These are adopted when they are high-speed, less laborious, more easy, among other advantages. To achieve this objective, it is necessary to demonstrate their reliability and the equivalence according to the existent traditional methods. In Cuba this topic is relatively incipient, therefore it is appropriate to carry out a review on this matter. The objective of this first revision consists on approaching the more significant parameters related with the validation of alternative qualitative microbiological methods.
