The present invention discloses a process for quantitative and/ or qualitative determination of the microbial contamination of suspensions, emulsions or dispersions containing minerals and/or pigments and/or fillers and/or fiber materials wherein following the addition of one or more substances which can be degraded by microorganisms, mixing and optionally subsequent incubation a sample of the suspensions, emulsions or dispersions is centrifuged to separate the microorganisms from the minerals and/or fillers and/or pigments and/or fiber materials and the number and/or size and/or type of the microorganisms is determined in the aqueous supernatant phase after one or more incubations.

L'invention concerne un procédé pour déterminer de manière quantitative et/ou qualitative la contamination microbienne de suspensions, émulsions ou dispersions contenant des minéraux et/ou des pigments et/ou des charges et/ou des matériaux fibreux. Ce procédé est caractérisé en ce qu'un échantillon des suspensions, émulsions ou dispersions, après addition d'une ou plusieurs substances organiques dégradables par des micro-organismes, est mélangé à ces dernières, puis après incubation éventuelle est centrifugé, pour séparer les micro-organismes des minéraux et/ou des pigments et/ou des charges et/ou des matériaux fibreux, et le nombre et/ou la taille et/ou la nature des micro-organismes sont déterminés dans la phase aqueuse surnageante, après une ou plusieurs incubations.
