They are present in human and animal faecal matter, in waste wa

22、ter and in soil. Unlike Escherichia coli and other coliform organisms, the spores survive in water for long periods as they are more resistant than vegetative forms to the action of chemical and physical factors. They may thus give an indication of remote or intermittent pollution. They may even be

23、resistant to chlorination at levels which are normally used for the treatment of water, and they are thus useful for control purposes. ISO 6461 consists of the following parts: Part 1: Method by enrichment in a liquid medium; Part 2: Method by membrane filtration. 1 Scope This part of ISO6461 specif

24、ies a method for the detection and enumeration of the spores of sulfite-reducing anaerobes (clostridia) by enrichment in a liquid medium. 2 Field of application The method is applicable to all types of water, including turbid water. 3 References ISO 3696, Water for laboratory use Specifications.

26、rt of ISO6461, the following definition applies. clostridia sulfite-reducing, spore-forming, anaerobic micro-organisms which belong to the Bacillaceae family and the genus Clostridium 5 Principle The detection of spores of sulfite-reducing anaerobes (clostridia) in a specified volume of a water samp

27、le requires the following steps. 5.1 Selection of spores Selection of spores in the sample by applying heat for a period of time sufficient to destroy vegetative bacteria. 5.2 Enrichment culture Detection and enumeration of spores of sulfite-reducing anaerobes by inoculating volumes of the sample in

28、to liquid enrichment media, followed by incubation at37 1 C for44 4h in anaerobic conditions. 6 Culture media and reagents 6.1 Basic materials In order to improve the reproducibility of the results, it is recommended that, for the preparation of the diluents and culture media, dehydrated basic compo

29、nents or complete dehydrated media be used. Similarly, commercially prepared reagents may also be used. The manufacturers instructions shall be rigorously followed. The chemical products used for the preparation of the culture media and the reagents shall be of recognized analytical quality. The wat

30、er used shall be distilled or deionized water, free from substances that might inhibit the growth of micro-organisms under the test conditions (seeISO3696). Measurements of pH shall be made using a pH meter, measurements being referred to a temperature of25 C. If the prepared culture media are not u

31、sed immediately, they shall, unless otherwise stated, be stored in the dark at approximately4 C, for no longer than 1 month. 6.2 Culture media and diluent 6.2.1 Diluent Use one of the diluents given in ISO8199. 6.2.2 Differential reinforced clostridial medium (DRCM) 6.2.2.1 Single strength basal med

33、m acetate and yeast extract with800ml of water. With the remaining200ml of distilled water, prepare a starch solution as follows: mix the starch in a little cold water to form a paste. Heat the rest of the water to boiling point and slowly add it to the paste with constant stirring. Then add this st

34、arch solution to the first mixture and heat to boiling point until it dissolves. Finally, add the glucose and L-cysteine hydrochloride. Dissolve. Adjust the pH to7,1 to7,2 with1 mol/l sodium hydroxide. Transfer25ml aliquots of the medium into screw-capped bottles of capacity25ml. Sterilize in the au

35、toclave at121 1 C for15min. 6.2.2.2 Double strength basal medium Prepare the double strength medium as in6.2.2.1 but reduce the volume of water by half. Transfer10ml and50ml aliquots of the medium into screw-capped bottles of capacities25ml and100ml respectively. 6.2.3 Sodium sulfite (Na 2 SO 3 ), 4

36、% (m/m) solution. Dissolve4g of anhydrous sodium sulfite in100ml of water. Sterilize by filtration. Store at between2 and5 C. It is advisable to prepare a fresh solution every14 days. 6.2.4 Iron(III) citrate (C 6 H 5 O 7 Fe), 7 % (m/m) solution. Dissolve7g of iron(III) citrate in100ml of water. Ster

37、ilize by filtration. Store at between2 and5 C. It is advisable to prepare a fresh solution every14 days. 6.2.5 Complete medium 6.2.5.1 On the day of analysis, mix equal volumes of the solutions of sodium sulfite (6.2.3) and iron(III) citrate (6.2.4). 6.2.5.2 Add0,5ml of the mixture (6.2.5.1) to each

38、 bottle of single strength medium (6.2.2.1), which has been freshly heated and cooled. 6.2.5.3 Add0,4ml of the mixture (6.2.5.1) to each10ml, and2ml to each50ml, of double strength medium (6.2.2.2) similarly treated. 7 Apparatus and glassware Usual microbiological laboratory equipment, and 7.1 Screw

39、-cap bottles or vials and stoppers of boron silicate glass of capacities200, 100 and25ml. 7.2 Volumetric pipettes, of capacities10 and1ml. 7.3 Water baths, thermostatically controlled. 7.4 Test tubes, 150mm 13mm. 7.5 Iron wire 7.6 Incubator, capable of being maintained at37 1 C. 8 Sampling Refer to

40、ISO5667-2 and ISO8199 for sampling techniques. 9 Procedure 9.1 Treatment of samples Refer to ISO5667-3 for guidance on the preservation and handling of samples, and to ISO8199. 9.2 Selection of spores (technique) Before the test, the sample of water should be heated in a water bath at75 5 C for15min

41、 from the time it reaches that temperature. A similar bottle containing the same volume of water as the test sample should be used periodically as a control in order to check the heating time required. The temperature of the water in the control bottle can be constantly recorded by thermometer. 9.3

42、Inoculation and incubation Add50ml of sample (9.2) to a100ml screw-cap bottle containing50ml of the double strength complete medium (6.2.5.3). Add10ml of sample (9.2) to a series of five25ml screw-cap bottles containing10ml of double strength complete medium (6.2.5.3). Add 1 ml of sample (9.2) to a

43、series of five25ml screw-cap bottles containing25ml of single strength complete medium (6.2.5.2). If necessary, add1ml of a1 F 10 dilution of the sample (9.2) to a series of five25ml screw-cap bottles containing25ml of single strength complete medium (6.2.5.2). In order to carry out a qualitative ex

44、amination of100ml of drinking water or bottled water without making an MPN count, use a200ml vial filled with a mixture of100ml of double strength complete medium (6.2.5.3) and100ml of sample (9.2).EN26461-1:1993 BSI 09-1999 5 If necessary, top up all the bottles with the single strength complete me

45、dium (6.2.5.2) to bring the volume of liquid level with the neck and to ensure that only a very small volume of air remains, then seal the bottles hermetically, or incubate under anaerobic conditions. Incubate the inoculated bottles at37 1 C for44 4h. Large volumes of culture in hermetically sealed

46、glass bottles may explode due to gas production. The addition of iron wire, heated to redness and placed into the medium before inoculation, may aid anaerobiosis. 9.4 Interpretation Bottles in which blackening is observed, as a result of the reduction of sulfite and the precipitation of iron(II) sul

47、fide, shall be regarded as positive. 10 Expression of results Express the results in accordance with ISO8199. 11 Test report The test report shall state the method used, and express the results as the most probable number of sulfite-reducing anaerobes (clostridia) per volume of sample. It shall also

48、 mention any operating details not specified in this part of ISO6461, or regarded as optional, together with details of any incidents likely to have influenced the results. The test report shall include all the information necessary for the complete identification of the sample.BSEN26461-1:1993 6 BS
