The Integrated Fungal Risk Value (IFRV): A Novel Mathematical Metric for Automated Microbiological Quality Control and Food Safety
Abstract: This concept paper introduces the Integrated Fungal Risk Value (IFRV), a pioneering mathematical framework designed to revolutionize microbiological quality control in the food industry. Moving beyond traditional Colony Forming Unit (CFU) counting Note: This document establishes the theoretical foundation and the intellectual property of the IFRV metric and the MycoSight system architecture.
