If the aim of the testing is to specifically assess the acceptability of a certain batch of foodstuffs or a process. Food business operators shall make this decision in the context of their procedures based on HACCP principles and good hygiene practice, taking into account the instructions for use of the foodstuff. The frequency of sampling may be adapted to the nature and size of the food businesses, provided that the safety of foodstuffs will not be endangered.

Absolute answers rarely exist. It likely relates to things like specific objective(s) of testing. Can you give some context ?
