Science - Biology (-tech,-chem,micro-) / dietary supplement testing
French term or phrase: profil référentiel microbien (P.R.M.)
In an article about dietary supplements, this part refers to the methods used for testing the quality of the products.

"Analyses microbiologiques: UFC/g Norme pharmacopee europeenne 5eme edition Laboratoire CEDRA, Couternon, ***P.R.M (Profil Referentiel Microbien)***"
followed by the name of a laboratory.

So far I have "microbial profile system", but I'm hoping a specialist in this field can confirm!

Many thanks for your help

bacteriology reference profile


Explanation:
Le but de cette analyse est d'identifier les grandes familles microbiennes, témoins et actrice de la relation entre le consommateur et son alimentation. Elle consiste donc à prélever un échantillon et à rechercher les éléments microbiens après mise en culture. Suivre la chaîne microbienne avec les classes de bactéries pathogènes ou biogènes et mettre en évidence les étapes défectueuses ou à risque dans un procede.

this is mostly related to disease or looking at bateriological profile of patients.

for food it seems that one should translate it: Reference microbial typing/analysis

I think the PRM is part of the HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) supposed to be provided by all manufacturers of products dedicated to human health or food.
example fro mthe EU:
