# MicroMPN: Software for automating most probable number (MPN) estimates from laboratory microplates


## Authors

## About MPN

Most probable number (MPN) is a  way of estimating how many viable bacteria are in a sample. 
A series of dilutions are made with replication and the  number of  tubes  or wells with bacterial growth is recorded.
This presence/absence and dilution information is used to calculate the most probable number of bacteria in a starting sample.

With liquid handling robots and plate reader this method can be baster than conventional plate counting or 
spotting for some applications. 


With liquid handling robots and plate reader this method can be faster than conventional plate counting or 
spotting on agar for some applications. 



## About MicroMPN

This python package has a command line program processing data from a plate reader. Users provide two types of files: 
A plate layout file specified in Wellmap format and a  CSV plate reader file with columns for the plate, 
the well or row and column and the optical value used for determining growth.

Developers of Python Packages who need an MPN calculation may want to use MicroMPN's mpn estimation function.
This is to my knowledge the only python implementation of MPN estimation in the Python Package Index.
This function is derived from Martine Ferguson and John Ihrie's MPN R package:

Martine Ferguson and John Ihrie. (2019). MPN: Most Probable Number and 
Other Microbial Enumeration Techniques. R package version 0.3.0. <https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=MPN> .



## Installing


1. To install from Github: 

```bash
  git clone git@github.com:USDA-ARS-GBRU/micrompn.git
  cd micrompn
  pip install .
```
2. To install from PyPI:

```bash
pip install micrompn
```

## Getting Started

MicroMPN uses two types of files, a file specifying the layout of the plate and a file containing the data from the plate reader.

1. ["Wellmap"](https://wellmap.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html)

- A Wellmap TOML format is a simple way of specifying plate layouts. The Wellmap site has extensive documentation about how to specify the layout. 
   
An example of the format is below. Features can be specifies by rows columns or blocks:

```
[col]
1.dilution = 1e00
2.dilution = 1e-01
3.dilution = 1e-02
4.dilution = 1e-03
5.dilution = 1e-04
6.dilution = 1e-05
7.dilution = 1e-06
8.dilution = 1e-07
9.dilution = 1e-08
10.dilution = 1e-09
11.dilution = 1e-10
12.dilution = 1e-11

[row]
A.replicate = 1
B.replicate = 2
C.replicate = 3
D.replicate = 4
E.replicate = 5
F.replicate = 6
G.replicate = 7
H.replicate = 8
[block.12x8.'A1']
sample = 1
```

Example of the above TOML layout visualized graphically with the Wellmap command wellmap.show("microplate.toml")

![wellmap replicate](https://github.com/USDA-ARS-GBRU/micrompn/assets/68250738/59f471f0-74e5-44f3-9518-4b287d439745)

![wellmap dilution](https://github.com/USDA-ARS-GBRU/micrompn/assets/68250738/5a1d4203-f26e-46af-8d8c-24580c84e699)


2. Plate reader CSV files

- Plate reader data files vary by instrument but most allow the output of data in tabular format.

- The named columns needed in a CSV are:

    * a plate column
    * a well column OR plate column AND plate row columns
    * an optical value column used for the determination of growth

```
plate_unique, plate_id, plate_well, rfu
plate_0, RFP_1_plate_1_shaking, A1, 27.081
plate_0, RFP_1_plate_1_shaking, A2, 22.001
plate_0, RFP_1_plate_1_shaking, A3, 12.949
plate_0, RFP_1_plate_1_shaking, A4, 10.328
plate_0, RFP_1_plate_1_shaking, A5, 9.264
plate_0, RFP_1_plate_1_shaking, A6, 10.017
plate_0, RFP_1_plate_1_shaking, A7, 9.373
plate_0, RFP_1_plate_1_shaking, A8, 9.049
plate_0, RFP_1_plate_1_shaking, A9, 3.78

```

- The names of these columns are specified in the command-line input "micrompn".

- After running MicroMPN the user will be provided with a CSV containing MPN estimates for each plate and sample

```
plate sample           mpn           mpn_adj         upper         lower
0    plate_0      0  1.005445e+08  9.220112e+07  2.295985e+08  2.295985e+08
1    plate_1      1  1.124383e+08  1.029753e+08  2.609546e+08  2.609546e+08
2    plate_2      2  3.388299e+07  2.797877e+07  6.811641e+07  6.811641e+07
3    plate_3      3  7.636579e+06  6.877494e+06  1.828966e+07  1.828966e+07
4    plate_4      4  7.515884e+05  6.752848e+05  1.195778e+06  1.195778e+06
5    plate_5      5  1.032498e+04  9.468444e+03  1.668272e+04  1.668272e+04
```

- The output contains the MPN, an MPN value corrected for bias due to the number of tubes used and the concentration and an upper and lower bound of the estimate. MicroMPN uses the 95% confidence bound estimation form Jarvis et al. 2010.
