CTA medium without carbohydrates is suitable for maintenance of organisms, and for detection of motility. HISTORY/SUMMARY: CTA medium has been accepted for the determination of carbohydrate utilization for a number of fastidious organisms, particularly Neisseria species and anaerobes. It has also been reported useful in fermentation studies of yeast. As a maintenance medium without carbohydrates, it supports the growth of organisms such as Neisseria, Pasteurella, Streptococci, Brucella, Corynebacteria and others. Motility can be detected in the semisolid medium when inoculated by stab line. PRINCIPLES: The base medium is free of carbohydrates and meat extracts. It contains Cystine and Casein Peptone as nutrients for the growth of fastidious organisms. Phenol red is added as an indicator of fermentation reactions. Carbohydrates are usually incorporated in the medium in 1% final concentrations. If a microorganism is inoculated in the medium containing a carbohydrate, and is capable of fermenting it, the medium indicator will turn from orange red to yellow.

  • APPENDIX a Media and Reagents
    APPENDIX A Media and Reagents Pauline K. w. Yu, M.S. The use of appropriate and dependable media is integral to the isolation and identification of microorganisms. Unfortunately, comparative data docu­ menting the relative efficacy or value of media designed for similar purposes are often lacking. Moreover, one cannot presume identity in composition of a given generic product which is manufactured by several companies because each may supplement the generic products with components, often of a proprietary nature and not specified in the product's labeling. Finally, the actual production of similar products may vary among manufacturers to a sufficient extent to affect their performance. For all of these reasons, therefore, product selection for the laboratory should not be strictly based on cost considerations and should certainly not be based on promotional materials. Evaluations that have been published in the scientific literature should be consulted when available. Alternatively, the prospective buyer should consult a recognized authority in the field. It is seldom necessary for the laboratory to prepare media using basic components since these are usually available combined in dehydrated form from commercial sources; however, knowledge of a medium's basic compo­ nents is helpful in understanding how the medium works and what might be wrong when it does not work. Hence, the components have been listed for each medium included in this chapter. All dehydrated media must be prepared exactly according to the manu­ facturers' directions. Any deviation from these directions may adversely affect or significantly alter a medium's performance. Containers of media should be dated on receipt and when opened, and the media should never be used beyond expiration dates specified by the manufacturers or recom­ mended by quality control programs.

  • WHO Global Foodborne Infections Network
    WHO Global Foodborne Infections Network (formerly WHO Global Salm-Surv) "A WHO network building capacity to detect, control and prevent foodborne and other enteric infections from farm to table” Laboratory Protocol “Isolation of Salmonella spp. From Food and Animal Faeces ” 5th Ed. June 2010 1 IMPORTANT NOTES: 1) This procedure is based on the ISO protocol: 6579:2002 “Microbiology of food and animal feeding stuffs -- Horizontal method for the detection of Salmonella spp.”4. This protocol is intended to provide guidance for the testing of suspect food items/ animal faecal specimens identified via foodborne disease surveillance programmes. Regulatory agencies (Ministries of Health, Agriculture, Commerce, etc) have specific testing requirements, different from this protocol, which much be used to test samples collected for regulatory testing (example: import/export or product recall). Prior to performing any official, legal, or regulatory testing, the reader should confirm the appropriate protocol through consult with in-country regulatory authorities. 2) This protocol is intended only to be used on food samples and animal faeces. This protocol should not be used for the testing of human faeces. Foreword: Infections due to Salmonella spp. remain a global problem. These infections may cause significant morbidity and mortality both in humans and production animals as well as considerable economic losses. Salmonella spp. are typically transmitted among humans and animals via a fecal-oral route, usually through the consumption of contaminated food or water. Timely identification and serotyping of Salmonella from clinical specimens facilitates outbreak detection and patient management while prompt and accurate detection of Salmonella spp. in contaminated food or water provides an opportunity to prevent the contaminated food from entering the food supply.
