HPC - HETEROTROPHIC PLATE COUNT
Explanation:
HETEROTROPHIC BACTERIA PLATE COUNT

Heterotrophic Plate Count (HPC) --- formerly known as the standard plate count, is a procedure for estimating the number of live heterotrophic bacteria and measuring changes during water treatment and distribution in water or in swimming pools. Colonies may arise from pairs, chains, clusters, or single cells, all of which are included in the term "colony-forming units"…http://cities.poly.edu/environment/gradedu/ce739/ce739lab/pl...

…The HETEROTROPHIC PLATE COUNT data provide the most significant information regarding the capabilities of the two disinfection strategies. This data provides a measure of the total heterotrophic bacteria… http://www.clearwaterpoolsystems.com/brookline.htm

…The public water system monitors general distribution system bacterial quality by conducting HETEROTROPHIC BACTERIA PLATE COUNTS on at least a weekly basis… http://www.lrc.state.ky.us/kar/401/008/200.htm
