Chaetomium globosum (ATCC 6205)Maintain andgrow for sporulation
37、on Mineral Salts Agar7with sterile filterpaper at 25 6 2C. Sabouraud Dextrose agar may also be usedto grow for sporulation.9. Preparation of Inoculum9.1 Bacteria:9.1.1 Grow the bacterial cultures on tryptone glucose ex-tract agar at 32 6 2C for 24 h. Add 1 mL of sterile water tothe surface of the sl
38、ant. Gently scrape and suspend theorganisms in the liquid.9.1.2 Transfer this volume to a tryptone glucose extract agarmilk dilution bottle flat and incubate at 32 6 2C for 24 h. Theorganisms harvested from this bottle flat will serve as inoculumfor the pulp cultures.9.1.3 To obtain this inoculum, a
39、dd 10 mL of sterile water tothe bottle flat from a 99 6 2-mL sterile water blank. Dispersethe growth on the flat throughout the water by gently movingit over the surface of the agar medium. Transfer 5 mL of thissuspension to the remaining 89 mLof sterile water in the waterblank and shake the content
40、s of the water blank vigorously tobreak up any bacterial clumps. Let settle. Take 1 ml of fromupper half of bottle, and add this inoculum (2 108to 1 109cells/mL) to each bottle containing the pulp substrate in thetest. This inoculum can also be cultured on tryptone glucoseagar petri plates and harve
41、sted in a similar fashion.9.2 Fungal Spores:9.2.1 Fungi are grown on appropriate agar slants at25 6 2C for 7 days. The fungal spores are harvested byadding 2 mL of sterile, distilled water with a non-toxic wettingagent such as sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate (0.05 g/Lwater) tothe surface of the slant.
42、 Gently scrape and suspend the sporesin the liquid.9.2.2 Inoculate these spores onto appropriate agar andincubate at 25 6 2C for 7 days. Spores are harvested (as in9.2.3) and serve as the inoculum for the pulp cultures.9.2.3 To obtain this inoculum, add 5 to 10 mL of sterile,phosphate buffer dilutio
43、n water having a non-toxic wettingagent such as sodium dioctyl sulfosuccinate (0.05 g/Lwater) tothe surface of the agar. Disperse the fungal spores and myceliain the bottle by gently scraping the surface of the medium.Alternatively, remove the growth from the surface of themedium, add it to a screw-
44、cap container with buffer and glassbeads, and shake vigorously. Set aside for 5 to 10 min to let thehyphae settle.9.2.4 Carefully remove the supernate with a pipet and filterthrough cotton gauze or glass wool plugged sterile funnel.9.2.5 Count the conidial suspension with a hemacytometerand standard
