    Technical Information Antibiotic Assay Medium No.1 (Seed Agar) Product Code : DM1003 Application: - Antibiotic Assay Medium No.1 (Seed Agar) is used in the microbiological assay of beta-lactam and other antibiotics. Composition** Ingredients Gms / Litre Peptic digest of animal tissue (Peptone) 6.000 or detecting faecal coliforms drinking in water waste water, seawater and foods samples by MPN Method. Casein enzymic hydrolysate 4.000 Yeast extract 3.000 Beef extract 1.500 Dextrose 1.000 Agar 15.000 Final pH (at 25°C) 6.6±0.2 **Formula adjusted, standardized to suit performance parameters Principle & Interpretation The potency of an antibiotic can be determined by chemical, physical and biological methods. An assay is performed to determine the ability of an antibiotic to kill or inhibit the growth of living microorganisms. Biological tests offer the most convenient m eans of performing an assay (1), since a reduction in the antimicrobial activity of a specific antibiotic reveals changes that is not usually displayed by chemical methods (2). Antibacterial susceptibility testing may be performed by either dilution (turbidimetric) or diffusion methods. The choice o f methodology is based on many factors, including ease of performance, flexibility and use of automated or semi-automated devices for both identification and susceptibility testing (3). Grove and Randall have elucidated antibiotic assays and media in their comprehensive treatise on antibiotic assays (4). Antibiotic Assay Medium No.1 is used in the microbiological assay of ß-lactam and other antibiotics. These media are prepared according to the specifications detailed in various pharmacopoeias (2-6) and by the FDA (7).

Microbial Cell Factories (2014) 13:173 DOI 10.1186/s12934-014-0173-5 REVIEW Open Access Development of bio-based fine chemical production through synthetic bioengineering Kiyotaka Y Hara1, Michihiro Araki1, Naoko Okai1, Satoshi Wakai1, Tomohisa Hasunuma1 and Akihiko Kondo2* Abstract Fine chemicals that are physiologically active, such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, nutritional supplements, flavoring agents as well as additives for foods, feed, and fertilizer are produced by enzymatically or through microbial fermentation. The identification of enzymes that catalyze the target reaction makes possible the enzymatic synthesis of the desired fine chemical. The genes encoding these enzymes are then introduced into suitable microbial hosts that are cultured with inexpensive, naturally abundant carbon sources, and other nutrients. Metabolic engineering create efficient microbial cell factories for producing chemicals at higher yields. Molecular genetic techniques are then used to optimize metabolic pathways of genetically and metabolically well-characterized hosts. Synthetic bioengineering represents a novel approach to employ a combination of computer simulation and metabolic analysis to design artificial metabolic pathways suitable for mass production of target chemicals in host strains. In the present review, we summarize recent studies on bio-based fine chemical production and assess the potential of synthetic bioengineering for further improving their productivity.
