  • “Isolation of Antibiotic Producing Actinomycetes from Soil”
    © 2020 JETIR May 2020, Volume 7, Issue 5 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) “ISOLATION OF ANTIBIOTIC PRODUCING ACTINOMYCETES FROM SOIL” *Sneha khadse1Priyanka Titirmare2 1) Project assistant at CSIR NEERI Nagpur, 2) Kamla Nehru Mahavidyalaya, Nagpur. ABSTRACT The present study deals with the isolation, production, purification and optimization of antibiotics from soil. The soil samples were collected from various places. Actinomycetes strains were isolated in specific medium using starch casein agar medium. The actinomycetes were screened with regard to potential against gram positive and gram negative bacteria. The purified actinomycetes strains were performed in biochemical tests. Gram staining, sugars fermentation, HS production, urease production, MR-VP test, indole production, citrate 2 utilization. Fermentation was carried out with starch casein broth and identified strain of actinomyces as inoculums. Antimicrobial activity of antibiotics was detected on Mueller Hinton Agar Media against E.coli. The purification of antibiotics was done with the help of activated charcoal. During the experiment a modified fermentation medium was formulated and activity of antibiotic produced in this medium was detected against E.coli. The isolated bacteria such as actinomycetesobtained from the soil. INTRODUCTION Antibiotics are complex chemical secondary metabolites, which are produced by microorganisms & act against other microorganisms. The term antibiotics had its origin from Greek word anti-against+biotikos =”fit for life”. Antibiotics are the best known products of actinomycetes. The best known genus of actinomycetes; Streptomyces (Order Actinomycetales, family Streptomycetaceae are gram-positive, filamentous bacteria that are ubiquitous in soil and produce the majority (>70%) of known antibiotics (Tanaka and Omura, 1990). The isolation & characterization of Actinomycetes were performed in different biochemical methods.

  • Biochemical Media Casitone Broth-White Cap with Black Circle. Loop Transfer
    Biochemical Media Casitone Broth-white cap with black circle. Loop transfer. (Use care tops may be very loose) (Do not put caps on the wrong tubes during the inoculation procedures). Can the organism split tryptophan into indole, pyruvic acid and ammonia? Test for the presence of indole (unique to this process) by adding 5 drops of Kovacs Test Reagent. If indole is present, a ruby red color will form at the top of the test tube. The media name for casitone comes from the word casein. Casein is a milk protein rich in the amino acid tryptophan. Result sheet recorded with a “pos” or “neg” Phenol Red Carbohydrate Fermentation Broths (Phenol Reds) Red capped broth with durham tube-Phenol Red with Lactose Clear capped broth with durham tube-Phenol Red with Glucose Yellow capped broth with durham tube-Phenol Red with Sucrose Blue capped broth with durham tube-Phenol Red with Maltose Green capped broth with durham tube-Phenol Red with Mannitol All tubes are inoculated with loop transfers. Can the organism ferment the carbohydrates listed above? Each comes with a separate sugar, a durham tube for gas collection and the acid-base indicator called phenolphthalein. Fermentation will produce acidity and sometimes gas. Gas alone is not produced by the fermentation process. Phenolphthalein will turn yellow in the presence of acid, red in an alkaline environment. Gas production can be observed by the presence of air bubbles captured in the durham tube. For each result both an acid and gas response should be indicated. For a large amount of acid (yellow) use “A”.

  • Sexually Transmitted Bacterial Pathogen for Which There Are Increasing Antimicrobial Resistance Concerns
    with Increasing Antimicrobial Resistance Antimicrobial with Increasing Sexually Tr Sexually Sexually Transmitted Bacterialansmitted Pathogen Bacterial Pathogen for which there are Increasing Antimicrobial Resistance Concerns Neisseria gonorrhoeae CHAPTER VI Neisseria gonorrhoeae CONFIRMATORY IDENTIFICATION AND ANTIMICROBIAL SUSCEPTIBILITY TESTING eisseria gonorrhoeae, also commonly referred to as “gonococcus” or “GC”, causes an estimated 62 million cases of gonorrhea worldwide each year N [Gerbase et al., 1998]. Spread by sexual intercourse, N. gonorrhoeae may infect the mucosal surfaces of urogenital sites (cervix, urethra, rectum) and the oro- and nasopharynx (throat), causing symptomatic or asymptomatic infections. GC is always pathogenic and, if untreated, gonorrhea is a major cause of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), tubal infertility, ectopic pregnancy, chronic pelvic pain and/or disseminated gonococcal infection (DGI). The probability of co- infection with other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) may be high in some patient populations. Neonates may acquire gonococcal infection of the conjunctiva during birth. The diagnosis of gonorrhea in older infants and young children is often associated with allegations of sexual abuse; transmission through neither nonsexual human nor fomite contact has been documented. Epidemiological studies provide strong evidence that gonococcal infections facilitate HIV transmission [Fleming and Wasserheit 1999]. Extended-spectrum cephalosporins, fluoroquinolones and spectinomycin are recognized as the most effective antibiotics for the treatment of gonorrhea in most areas of the world. Antimicrobial resistance in N. gonorrhoeae is the most significant challenge to controlling gonorrhea. Gonococcal strains may be resistant to penicillins, tetracyclines, spectinomycin, and, recently, resistance to the fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin) and the macrolide azithromycin has emerged [Handsfield 1994; Knapp et al. 1997; Young et al.

  • Salmonella Serotype Typhi Shigella Vibrio Cholerae
    Bacterial Agents of Enteric Diseases of Public Health Concern Salmonella serotype Typhi Diseases of Enteric Bacterial Agents Shigella of Health Concern Public Vibrio cholerae CHAPTER VII Salmonella serotype Typhi IDENTIFICATION AND ANTIMICROBIAL SUSCEPTIBILITY TESTING almonella serotype Typhi (S. Typhi), the etiologic agent of typhoid fever, causes an estimated 16.6 million cases and 600,000 deaths worldwide each S year. A syndrome similar to typhoid fever is caused by “paratyphoidal” serotypes of Salmonella.The paratyphoid serotypes (i.e., S. Paratyphi A, S. Paratyphi B, and S. Paratyphi C) are isolated much less frequently than S. Typhi. Rarely, other serotypes of Salmonella,such as S. Enteritidis, can also cause “enteric fever.” Like other enteric pathogens, S. Typhi is transmitted through food or water that has been contaminated with feces from either acutely infected persons, persistent excretors, or from chronic asymptomatic carriers. Humans are the only host for S. Typhi; there are no environmental reservoirs. Effective antimicrobial therapy reduces morbidity and mortality from typhoid fever. Without therapy, the illness may last for 3–4 weeks and case-fatality rates may exceed 10%. With appropriate treatment, clinical symptoms subside within a few days, fever recedes within 5 days, and mortality is reduced to approximately 1%. Relapses, characterized by a less severe but otherwise typical illness, occur in 10%–20% of patients with typhoid fever, usually after an afebrile period of 1–2 weeks. Relapses may still occur despite antimicrobial therapy. S. Typhi is most frequently isolated from blood during the first week of illness, but it can also be present during the second and third weeks of illness, during the first week of antimicrobial therapy, and during clinical relapse.

    CHAPTER 5 Bacteriology Jason Woodland USFWS - Pinetop Fish Health Center Pinetop, Arizona NWFHS Laboratory Procedures Manual - Second Edition, June 2004 Chapter 5 - Page 1 I. Introduction This section defines the procedures and techniques used to correctly identify the target bacterial pathogens identified for the Survey (Yersinia ruckeri, Aeromonas salmonicida and Edwardsiella ictaluri). Proper identification relies on bacterial growth characteristics, appropriate biochemical tests, and corroboration by serological techniques. Pathogens of Regional Importance (PRIs) include: Citrobacter freundii, Edwardsiella tarda, Flavobacterium columnare and Flavobacterium psychrophilum. The later two bacteria have special requirements for culture and serological confirmation. Several excellent sources are listed in the Reference section for identification of PRIs and other bacteria that may be isolated from fish sampled for the Survey. Additional media formulas are also provided for PRIs in Appendix A. Thanks to Phil Hines of the USFWS, Pinetop Fish Health Center, Pete W. Taylor of the USFWS, Abernathy Fish Health Center and Clifford E. Starliper of the USGS, National Fish Health Laboratory for their input into this second edition of the bacteriology chapter. II. Media Preparation A. PLATE MEDIA 1. Prepare media in stainless steel beakers or clean glassware according to manufacturer instructions. Check pH and adjust if necessary.

    Bangl. J. Vet. Med . (2013).11(2): 97-105 ISSN: 1729-7893 (Print) 2308-0922 (Online) OCCURRENCE OF PASTEURELLOSIS AND NEWCASTLE DISEASE IN INDIGENOUS CHICKENS IN SIRAJGONJ DISTRICT S. M. S. H. Belal Veterinary Surgeon, District Veterinary Hospital, Sirajgonj ABSTRACT A study was carried out on indigenous layer chickens to know occurrence of Avian Pasteurellosis (AP) and Newcastle disease (ND) in Sirajgonj during the period from January/2012 to December/2013. The clinical signs showed before death was recorded by taking history and the birds were subjected to post mortem examination. In addition to the clinical and necropsy findings, ND was detected by Anigen® rapid antigen detection kit. The AP was confirmed by isolation and identification of Pasteurella (P.) multocida from liver, spleen and heart samples. The P. multocida was found to grow on nutrient broth, nutrient agar, blood agar and Eosin Methylene Blue agar where it produced whitish, opaque, round, flat, translucent colonies. It produced turbidity on nutrient broth. The organism was not found to grow on MacConkey agar media and did not cause hemolysis on blood agar media. The impression smear of liver and heart blood were stained by Gram’s staining, Leishman staining and Methylene blue staining techniques to detect P. multocida . P. multocida organism was also found to fermnt dextrose, lactose and mannitol with the production of only acid but did not ferment maltose and lactose. P. mutocida was found non-motile, indole positive and urease negative. On triple sugar iron test it produced H 2S and fermented only glucose. It was found negative to both methyl red test and Voges Proskauer test.

  • Culture: Routine Stool: Lab-3105
    Standard Operating Procedure Subject Culture: Routine Stool Index Number Lab-3105 Section Laboratory Subsection Microbiology Category Departmental Contact Sarah Stoner Last Revised 3/18/2019 References Required document for Laboratory Accreditation by the College of American Pathologists. Applicable To Employees of the Gundersen Health Systems laboratories. Detail This document establishes guidelines for isolation and identification of stool pathogens. PRINCIPLE: Gastroenteritis can be caused by bacteria, parasites or viruses. Physician input can help the lab determine which tests are appropriated for detecting the etiological agent. When only a routine fecal culture is requested, however, the lab should search for the most common or more easily detected bacterial agents of diarrhea. Our laboratory looks for Salmonella, Shigella, E.coli O157:H7 and Campylobacter. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Salmonella, Shigella, Campylobacter and E.coli O157:H7 are the most prevalent stool pathogens isolated by our laboratory. They are implicated as agents of foodborne illness and isolates need to be reported to the state for epidemiological purposes. Salmonella outbreaks have been associated with raw eggs, reptiles, and poor hand washing. E.coli O157:H7 outbreaks have been traced to hamburger, raw milk, sausage, roast beef, un-chlorinated municipal water, apple cider, raw vegetables, salads, and mayonnaise. E.coli O157:H7 spreads easily from person to person because the infectious dose is low: outbreaks associated with person to person spread have occurred in schools, long term care institutions, families, and day-care facilities. Campylobacter has been associated with poultry products and contaminated water. SPECIMEN: Refer to Lab-1215 Microbiology Specimen Collection and Transport.
