Acceptable levels of lactic acid bacteria

[Longdogs]

I had a bourbon mash go stringy on me, so I sent a sample out to test.  It came back with 280,000,000 cfg/g anerobic lactic acid bacteria.  It doesn't specify which strain.  Is that count way too high?   I found a few studies that talked about how to get the counts down, but that won't matter if thats a normal count.  If its high I know some things I can to do make sure it doesn't happen again.  I can't seem to find studies in laymans terms telling me what normal counts are supposed to be.
