  • 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.

  • Bacterial Cultures Care Guide SCIENTIFIC Introduction Use the Following Guide to Learn How to Properly Care for Bacterial Cultures
    Bacterial Cultures Care Guide SCIENTIFIC Introduction Use the following guide to learn how to properly care for bacterial cultures. BIO FAX! Safety Precautions After use, agar plates will likely contain viable microbes. Although the bacteria are not likely to be pathogenic, do not open the plates unnecessarily. Use sterile techniques at all times when handling bacterial cultures. When plates are done being used, they should be autoclaved or opened under a 10% bleach solution and soaked for at least one hour. Bleach solution is a corrosive liquid that may dis- color clothing and cause skin burns. Avoid contact of bleach with heat, acids and organic materials; chlorine gas will be generated. Wear chemical splash goggles, chemical-resistant gloves, and a chemical-resistant apron. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water before leaving the laboratory. Please follow all laboratory safety guidelines. Culturing and Maintenance Prior to receiving bacterial cultures it is helpful to be aware of the required conditions for the particular strain of bacteria purchased. Each species has specific conditions that are necessary for optimal growth. Refer to the Bacterial Cultures Table below for incubation temperature and the appropriate general medium. Bacterial Cultures Table Description (Genus species) Incubation Temperature† Medium Bacillus cereus (20–35) 30 °C Nutrient agar Bacillus mycoides 30 °C Nutrient agar Bacillus megaterium (25–35) 30 °C Nutrient agar Bacillus subtilis (25–35) 25–30 °C Nutrient agar Enterobacter aerogenes (30–37) 30 °C Nutrient

  • BBL Nutrient Agar
    BBL™ Nutrient Agar ! L007481 • Rev. 08 • July 2006 " QUALITY CONTROL PROCEDURES I INTRODUCTION Nutrient Agar is a general-purpose medium for the cultivation of a wide variety of bacterial organisms. II PERFORMANCE TEST PROCEDURE 1. Liquefy Nutrient Agar in A tubes by heating in boiling water. Cool to 45–50°C and pour into Petri dishes and allow to firm up for at least 30 min. 2. Streak the plates using 0.01 mL calibrated loops in order to obtain isolated colonies. For tubed slants, inoculate the agar surfaces with a loopful of inoculum. Use 10-1 dilutions of 18- to 24-h Trypticase™ Soy Broth cultures of the organisms listed below. 3. Incubate plates or tubes in an aerobic atmosphere at 35 ± 2°C. Caps should be loosened on the tubed media. 4. Examine plates or tubes after 18–24 h for amount of growth. 5. Expected Results Organisms ATCC™ Recovery Pseudomonas aeruginosa 10145 Moderate to heavy growth, green pigmentation *Shigella flexneri 12022 Moderate to heavy growth *Staphylococcus aureus 25923 Moderate to heavy growth, cream to gold colonies *Recommended organism strain for User Quality Control. III ADDITIONAL QUALITY CONTROL 1. Examine tubes as described under “Product Deterioration.” 2. Visually examine representative tubes to assure that any existing physical defects will not interfere with use. 3. Incubate uninoculated representative tubes at 20–25°C and 30–35°C and examine after 7 days for microbial contamination. PRODUCT INFORMATION IV INTENDED USE Nutrient Agar is used for the cultivation of bacteria and for the enumeration of organisms in water, sewage, feces and other materials.

  • NRM Nutritional Requirements and Media Learning Objectives the Student Will  Use Aseptic Techniques in the Safe Inoculation of Various Forms of Media
    NRM Nutritional Requirements and Media Learning Objectives The student will Use aseptic techniques in the safe inoculation of various forms of media. Follow oral and written instructions and manage time in the lab efficiently. Apply correct terminology regarding microbiological techniques, instruments, microbial growth, media types and forms when making observations. Correctly perform various inoculation techniques. Background/Theory Organisms can be identified according to the source of carbon they use for metabolism as well as their energy source. The prefixes auto- (“self”) and hetero- (“other”) refer to the origins of the carbon sources various organisms can use. Organisms that convert inorganic carbon dioxide (CO2) into organic carbon compounds are autotrophs. Plants and cyanobacteria are well-known examples of autotrophs. Conversely, heterotrophs rely on more complex organic carbon compounds as nutrients; these are provided to them initially by autotrophs. Many organisms, ranging from humans to many prokaryotes, including the well-studied Escherichia coli, are heterotrophic. (OpenStax CNX, 2018) This exercise investigates the nutritional requirements of some heterotrophic bacteria. Heterotrophs need an organic source of carbon for ATP generation and for anabolic (growth) activities. Carbohydrates, proteins and fats are all organic compounds. In addition, nitrogen is needed for building amino acids which form proteins. Nitrogen can come from organic sources (proteins, for example) or inorganic sources. Some heterotrophs can manufacture many complex molecules from inorganic and small organic molecules. Others rely on many large, more complex molecules being available in the environment. The more ready-made, complex organic compounds an organism requires of the environment, the more fastidious it is. In this course you will encounter many types of growth media.
