9、 Agriculture and Food Standards Policy Committee. BS4285-3.9:1987 describes a classical method for the detection of Salmonella. It has been renumbered as Subsection3.9.1 to allow the following screening test using electrical conductance to be issued as Subsection3.9.2. This Subsection incorporates t

10、he isolation and confirmation procedures described in ISO6785:1985 Milk and milk products Detection of Salmonella, but it is technically different from that standard principally because it allows a choice of at least two of the selective solid media from the four described.

17、chemical and serological characteristics described when the tests are carried out in accordance with this standard 3.2 detection of Salmonella determination of the presence or absence of these microorganisms, in a particular mass or volume of product, when the tests are carried out in accordance wit

18、h this standard 4 Principle 4.1 General The detection of Salmonella by electrical techniques necessitates four successive stages as described in4.2 to4.5 (see Figure 1). 4.2 Pre-enrichment in liquid medium The non-selective pre-enrichment broth is inoculated with the test portion and incubated at37

19、C for16h to20h. 4.3 Enrichment and detection in selective liquid media One or two selective media in conductance cells are inoculated with the culture obtained from4.2 and incubated at37 C in an electrical impedance detection unit. This allows the selective growth of Salmonella during which specific

20、 substrates are metabolized causing a change in the electrical conductivity of the medium that is indicative of the presence of the organism. The diagnostic reactions are dependent on the fermentation of mannitol or dulcitol with the simultaneous reduction of trimethylamine-N-oxide, and/or the decar

21、boxylation of lysine. The incubation period shall be not less than24h at37 C. 4.4 Plating out and recognition From the cultures obtained (see4.3), two selective solid media are inoculated. The two selective solid media, are incubated at37 C and examined after20h to24h and, if necessary, after40h to4

22、8h to check for the presence of colonies which, from their characteristics, are considered to be presumptive Salmonella. 4.5 Confirmation Colonies of presumptive Salmonella (see4.4) are sub-cultured and confirmed by means of appropriate biochemical and serological tests. 5 Safety precautions 5.1 The

23、 procedure specified in this Subsection of BS4285 shall be carried out only in laboratories with suitable facilities and under the control of a qualified microbiologist. 5.2 These procedures shall not be performed in quality control laboratories, or in food manufacturing or processing premises, wher

24、e there is a risk of contamination of the environment. 5.3 Full bacteriological precautions shall be taken at all times whilst carrying out the procedure specified in this Subsection of BS4285. Particular attention shall be given to the sterilization of used equipment and media after testing suspect

25、 samples and prior to disposal or re-use. 6 Culture media, reagents and sera 6.1 Basic materials To improve the reproducibility of the results, it is recommended that dehydrated basic components or complete dehydrated media should be used for the preparation of culture media. The manufacturers instr

26、uctions shall be rigorously followed when preparing the culture media.BS4285-3.9.2:1992 2 BSI 06-1999 Figure 1 ProcedureBS4285-3.9.2:1992 BSI 06-1999 3 The chemicals used for preparing the culture media and the reagents shall be of recognized analytical grade. The water used shall be distilled or de

27、ionized water, free from substances that might inhibit growth of microorganisms under the test conditions. The pH measurements shall be carried out by means of the pH meter(7.7). If the prepared culture media and reagents are not used immediately, they shall, unless otherwise specified, be stored in

28、 the dark at between0 C and5 C, but for no longer than1month, and in conditions that prevent any change in their composition. 6.2 Culture media and reagents 6.2.1 Pre-enrichment medium: modified buffered peptone water Preparation Dissolve all ingredients in the water by steaming them.
