BS EN 15785:2009EN 15785:2009 (E) 4 Introduction This methodology has been developed to enumerate and differentiate probiotic bifidobacteria, to enable the European Commission to control proper labelling of animal

16、 feed stuffs (EU project SMT4-CT98-2235 - “Methods for the official control of probiotics (microorganisms) used in animals feeds“) 1. The proposed enumeration method for probiotic bifidobacteris was validated in an interlaboratory study 2. The method is not selective for probiotic bifidobacteria but

17、 can be applied to enumerate them in additives, premixtures and feeding stuffs assuming that they are present in higher numbers than any other bacteria. BS EN 15785:2009EN 15785:2009 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard defines general rules for the enumeration of probiotic bifidobacteria in feed sa

18、mples (additives, premixtures and feeding stuffs) that contain bifidobacteria as a single bacterial component or in a mixture with other microorganisms. This standard is not applicable for mineral feeds which are defined as complementary feeding stuffs composed mainly of minerals and containing at l

19、east 40% crude ash (Council Directive 79/373/EEC) 3. There are different categories of feed samples: a) Additives containing about 1010colony forming units (CFU)/g b) Premixtures containing about 108CFU/g c) Feeds, meal or pellets, which contain about 106CFU/g and include complete feeding stuffs, an

26、 in order to reduce the number of microorganisms per unit volume, to allow, after incubation, the counting of colonies. e) Inoculation of the prepared plates with an aliquot of the optimum dilutions and dispersion of the inoculum by using a sterile spreader. f) Incubation of inverted plates for 36 h

27、 to 48 h at 37 C 1 C, under anaerobic conditions. g) Counting of typical colonies, considering the specific properties of bifidobacteria as listed above. h) Morphological verification of isolates within the Bifidobacterium genus using microscope analysis. i) Calculation of the colony count per g or

28、kg of feed sample. 5 Diluent, media and phenotypic characterisation 5.1 Diluents 5.1.1 Diluent for initial suspension This diluent is used to decimally dilute the sample to prepare an initial sample suspension of 10-1in appropriate containers (e.g. universals, bottles or flasks). 5.1.1.1 Initial dil

29、uent for additives Phosphate buffered saline (PBS): Dissolve 8 g sodium chloride, 0,2 g potassium chloride, 1,15 g disodium hydrogen phosphate, 0,2 g potassium dihydrogen phosphate, pH 7,3 0,2 is dissolved in 1 l of distilled water. Aliquote this saline is aliquoted into appropriate containers (e.g.

30、 universals, bottles or flasks). Autoclave all capped containers with the initial diluent are autoclaved at 121 C 1 C for 10 min. To avoid loss during autoclaving, screw cap bottles are recommended. Bring the diluent to room temperature before use. Measure the pH of the diluent to ensure the suitabl

31、e buffer capacity. BS EN 15785:2009EN 15785:2009 (E) 7 5.1.2 Diluent for serial dilutions This diluent is used to decimally dilute the initial sample suspension and subsequent dilutions. A peptone salt solution is made complying with EN ISO 6887-1. Compose the solution of enzymatic digest of 1 g cas

32、ein such as pancreatic peptone of casein (or peptone of same quality) and 8,5 g sodium chloride) per liter (l) distilled water. Dissolve the ingredients in water. Adjust the pH to 7,0 0,2 at 25 C 1 C. For decimal dilutions, prepare test tubes containing 9,0 ml 0,1 ml after sterilisation or use screw

33、 cap bottles to avoid weight loss during autoclaving. Sterilise in the autoclave for 15 min at 121 C 1 C. Bring the diluent to room temperature before use. 5.2 Media 5.2.1 General Four different media are proposed: a) MRS agar; b) MRS agar supplemented with Triphenyl Tetrazolium Chloride (TTC); c) A

34、MRSA: Acidified MRS agar; d) Selective medium: MRS medium supplemented with cysteine hydrochloride and mupirocin. For routine enumeration of bifidobacteria the use of MRS agar will be sufficient assuming that the probiotic strain is present in far higher numbers than any other microorganism. The med

35、ium is designed to encourage the growth of lactic acid bacteria such as pediococci, enterococci and lactobacilli. Selection can be made by pH adjustment, as pediococci, lactobacilli and bifidobacteria will tolerate a lower pH than enterococci (pH 5.0 to pH 6,5) and will grow on acidified MRS agar. W

36、hen pediococci and lactobacilli are expected, MRS agar supplemented with TTC allows differentiation of bifidobacteria colonies by different translucent brown-red coloration after anaerobic incubation. The MRS medium supplemented with mupirocin is selective for bifidobacteria and should be used when

37、other probiotic lactic acid bacteria are present in higher numbers than bifidobacteria. 5.2.2 Composition 5.2.2.1 MRS agar The composition of the MRS agar per l of distilled water is as follows: 20,0 g dextrose, 10,0 g polypeptone, 10,0 g meat extract, 5,0 g yeast extract, 5,0 g sodium acetate 3 x H

38、20, 2,0 g sodium phosphate, 2,0 g tri-ammonium citrate, 1,0 g Tween 80, 0,2 g magnesium sulphate 7 x H2O, 0,05 g manganese sulphate 4 x H2O, agar 15,0 g, pH 6,5 0,2. NOTE BactoTMLactobacilli MRS agar from Difco Laboratories or from any other supplier producing a medium of same composition may be use

41、3B, or equivalent) per ml. 5.2.3 Preparation 5.2.3.1 MRS agar Suspend all ingredients in distilled water and sterilise by autoclaving at 121 C 1 C for 15 min. 5.2.3.2 MRS agar supplemented with TTC Prepare 1 g Triphenyl Tetrazolium Chloride (TTC) in 100 ml water and filter sterilise. Add 1 ml per 10

42、0 ml MRS agar medium (see 5.2.3.1) which is temperated at 48 C 1 C after autoclaving. NOTE TTC is destroyed by autoclaving. 5.2.3.3 AMRSA Adjust the pH of MRS agar with HCl to 5,4 0,1 prior to autoclaving. Sterilise at 121C 1C for 15 min. 5.2.3.4 Selective medium Selective medium (see 5.2.2.4) suppl

Decant the solution from disks and a

44、dd to 190 ml molten medium held at about 48 C prior to plate pouring and drying. Final mupirocin concentration shall be 50 g/ml. 5.3 Phenotypic characterisation Characteristic appearance of the bifidobacteria under phase contrast microscopy is rod shaped. Cell morphology can be used to distinguish b
