20、enumeration of microorganisms Part 2: Colony count at 30 C by the surface plating technique1 ScopeThis part of ISO 4833 specifies a horizontal method for enumeration of microorganisms that are able to grow and form colonies on the surface of a solid medium after aerobic incubation at 30 C. The metho

21、d is applicable to:a) products intended for human consumption or for animal feed;b) environmental samples in the area of food and feed production and food handling.This part of ISO 4833 is applicable to:1) products containing heat-sensitive organisms that are likely to form a significant proportion

22、of the total flora (e.g. psychrotrophic organisms in chilled and frozen foods, dried foods, other foods that may contain heat-sensitive organisms);2) products containing obligately aerobic bacteria that are likely to form a significant proportion of the total flora (e.g. Pseudomonas spp.);3) product

23、s that contain small particles that can prove difficult to distinguish from colonies in a pour plate;4) products whose intense colour prevents the recognition of colonies in a pour plate;5) products for which distinction between different types of colony is required as part of the assessment of food

24、 quality.In addition to the manual spread plating technique, this part of ISO 4833 also specifies the use of a spiral plater, a rapid method of performing surface colony counts (Annex A).The applicability of this part of ISO 4833 to the examination of certain fermented food and animal feeds is limit

25、ed and other media or incubation conditions can be more appropriate. However, this method can be applied to such products even though it is possible that the predominant microorganisms in these products are not detected effectively.For some matrices, the method described in this part of ISO 4833 can

30、, yeasts and moulds that are able to produce colonies under the conditions specified in this part of ISO 4833.4 PrincipleA specified quantity of the test sample, or a specified quantity of an initial suspension in the case of other products, is surface plated on a solid agar culture medium contained

31、 in Petri dishes.Other plates are prepared under the same conditions using decimal dilutions of the test sample or of the initial suspension.The plates are incubated under aerobic conditions at 30 C for 72 h.The number of microorganisms per gram of sample or the number of microorganisms per millilit

32、re of sample is calculated from the number of colonies obtained on the plates containing fewer than 300 colonies.5 Culture media and diluents5.1 GeneralFollow ISO 11133 for the preparation, production and performance testing of culture media.5.2 DiluentsUse the diluent(s) specified in ISO 6887 for t

Sterilize in an autoclave (6.1)

36、 at 121 C for 15 min.If the medium is to be used immediately, cool it in a water bath (6.4) maintained at 47 C to 50 C before use. If not, allow the medium to solidify in the flask or bottle.
