10、tended for use in livestock farming applications. The method described in this standard is applicable to disinfectants intended for use against tuberculosis. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this British Standard, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 antibacterial efficacy lowes

11、t concentration (greatest dilution) of a disinfectant that will reduce the bacterial population in a challenge medium by at least a factor of 10 4 3 Principle A challenge medium containing Mycobacterium fortuitum is added to a series of dilutions of a product in hard water. After a contact time of 6

12、0 min at 4 C, a portion of each mixture is deactivated and then subcultured into five replicate tubes of recovery broth, which are incubated and examined for growth. NOTE 1 The test organism has been placed in Category 2 by the Advisory Committee on Dangerous Pathogens. The procedure is repeated, as

13、 necessary, until two dilutions differing in concentration by a ratio 9:10 are obtained, one of which produces growth in more than three of the five replicates and the other of which shows no growth in two or more of the five replicates. NOTE 2 Absence of growth in two or more of the five replica cu

14、ltures is equivalent to a reduction of at least 99.99 % in the initial colony count. 4 Sterilization Wherever sterile reagents, media, materials or apparatus are referred to, or an instruction to sterilize them is given, sterility shall be that achieved by being kept at either: a) 170 C to 175 C for

15、 not less than one hour in an oven (dry sterilization 1) ); or b) C for not less than 15 min in an autoclave (wet sterilization). Carry out manipulation of sterile material and bacterial cultures aseptically. 5 Reagents and materials 5.1 General All reagents shall be of recognized biological or anal

16、ytical grade. Water shall be free from substances that are toxic or inhibiting to the bacteria. It shall be freshly glass distilled or, if distilled water of adequate quality is not available, water for injectable preparations (EDQM) and not demineralized water. All solutions and media other than ye

17、ast suspension shall be freshly prepared so as to be fit for purpose, i.e. support bacterial growth as appropriate and not possess inhibitory properties. 5.2 Diluent. Dissolve 0.305 g of anhydrous calcium chloride (CaCl 2 ) and 0.139 g of magnesium chloride hexahydrate (MgCl 2 .6H 2 O) in water and

18、dilute to one litre. NOTE This is standard hard water of 342 mg/kg hardness in accordance with Emulsion Stability Test WHO/M/13 in Specifications for pesticides used in public health 1. 1) This method is suitable for dry glassware only. 121 +3 0BS 6734:2004 2 BSI 13 October 2004 5.3 Test organism My

20、 the liquid medium (5.5.1). Sterilize (see Clause 4). 5.6 lnactivator. Add, aseptically, 0.5 ml of sterile horse serum to 9.5 ml portions of liquid culture medium (5.5.1) when cool. 5.7 Yeast, 250 g moist bakers yeast. NOTE It is recommended that the yeast is obtained locally, so that it is as fresh

21、 as possible. 5.8 Yeast suspension. Place three suitable dishes with a reasonably large surface area (the base of a 90 mm glass Petri dish is ideal) in a drying oven at a temperature not greater than (105 2) C (6.2g) and dry. Allow to cool in a desiccator. Weigh to the nearest 1 mg and record their

22、masses. Crumble the yeast (5.7) by hand into a one-litre beaker and slowly add 500 ml of the diluent (5.2), creaming and stirring with a heavy glass rod until all the lumps are mixed in. Thoroughly stir the yeast suspension and transfer (10 0.1) g of it, weighed to an accuracy of 1 mg, from the beak

23、er to each of the dried, weighed dishes. Place each of the dishes in a drying oven at a temperature of (105 2) C (6.2g) and dry, then allow to cool in a desiccator and reweigh. Repeat these procedures until two consecutive weighings are within 1 mg. Calculate the mean dry mass of yeast as a percenta

24、ge of the moist material. NOTE Four hours in the drying oven, followed by one or two further one hour periods in the oven have been found to be satisfactory in most cases. 2) For information on the availability of these reagents and materials, contact BSI Customer Services, British Standards House,

29、 October 2004 3 During the operation to calculate the mean dry mass, place the remainder of the yeast suspension in a refrigerator at 2 C to 8 C. Measure the volume of the remaining yeast suspension by transferring from the beaker to a two-litre measuring cylinder, swirling it to mix as it is poured

30、 out and making sure that no lumps remain. Record the volume (2 ml). Calculate the volume of diluent to be added to obtain a 5 % mass by mass suspension calculated on the dry mass of the yeast. Add that amount of diluent to the cylinder using some of the diluent to wash out the beaker. Transfer 100

31、ml portions into screw-capped bottles. Sterilize (see Clause 4). Mark the level in the bottles before autoclaving and discard those which show any excessive loss in the autoclaving process. Allow the bottles to cool slowly and then store them in a refrigerator at 2 C to 8 C for at least 8 weeks and

32、not more than 14 weeks before use. Take one bottle of the prepared yeast suspension, empty the contents into a 150 ml beaker and, by means of a pH meter, determine the pH of the suspension. Add, with stirring, sodium hydroxide solution, at a concentration of 0.2 mol/l, from a burette until a pH of 6

33、.9 to 7.1 is obtained. Calculate the amount of sodium hydroxide solution required (0.1 ml). To each of the other bottles in the batch add aseptically the calculated amount of sterile 0.2 mol/l sodium hydroxide solution determined. 5.9 Ringers solution, quarter-strength. Make a quarter-strength Ringe

34、rs solution in accordance with either a) or b). a) Dissolve 9.00 g of sodium chloride, 0.42 g of potassium chloride, 0.48 g of calcium chloride hexahydrate and 0.20 g of sodium hydrogen carbonate in water and dilute to 1 000 ml. Add one volume of the solution to three volumes of water to give a quar

35、ter-strength solution. b) Dissolve one quarter-strength Ringers solution tablet in the appropriate volume of water, to obtain a quarter-strength solution. Then, in common for both solutions, sterilize (see Clause 4). Prior to use, dispense (9 0.1) ml volumes into suitable sterile containers (e.g. te

36、st tubes with closures, Universal containers). 6 Apparatus 6.1 Cleanliness The standard of cleanliness normally associated with bacteriological procedures is required but, when disinfectants based on quaternary ammonium compounds have been used, special care in the cleaning of glassware is necessary

37、. The following cleaning procedure is satisfactory and shall be used in cases of dispute, but otherwise, it is permissible for any method that can be shown to give equivalent results and is known to be satisfactory to be used. Wash glassware in cold, 62 g/l nitric acid solution and allow to stand ov

38、ernight in the acid. Rinse successively with 4 g/l sodium hydroxide solution, tap water, 6 g/l nitric acid solution and tap water until the acid is removed.

43、 accordance with the suppliers instructions. Using a sterilized pipette, add approximately 0.5 ml of the sterilized challenge culture broth (5.5.2) to the contents of the tube and incubate for seven days in the incubator (6.2f) controlled at (37 1) C. From this initial culture, prepare the stock cul

44、ture (7.2) and, from that, the broth cultures (7.3). 7.2 Stock culture Spread a loopful of the initial culture (7.1) over the surface of a slope of the sterilized solid culture medium (5.4) in a universal bottle (6.2c). Incubate for seven days in the incubator (6.2f) controlled at (37 1) C, and stor

45、e in a refrigerator between 2 C and 8 C until required. Use stock cultures so stored within one month, although subcultures can be taken before the expiry of that date and used within another month. However, do not take more than six serial subcultures before resorting to a new freeze-dried culture
