The method was not given in BS4285:1968 nor in Supplement No.1 (1970). A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of
6、 a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii, pages1 and 2, an inside

This will be indicated in the amendment table on theinside front cover.BS4285-3.11:1985 BSI 03-1999 1 1 Scope This Section of BS 4285 describes a method for the detection and en
8、umeration of faecal streptococci in milk and dairy products. NOTEThe titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 2 Definition For the purposes of this Section of BS4285, the following definition applies: faecal streptococci those bacteria that form ch
9、aracteristic colonies when grown on the selective medium under the conditions specified 3 Principle A test portion or series of decimal dilutions is mixed with a selective culture medium in Petri dishes and incubated. The numbers of characteristic colonies on selected plates are counted and the numb
10、er of faecal streptococci per millilitre or per gram of the original sample are calculated. 4 Diluents and culture medium 4.1 Diluents Use diluents described in BS4285-1.2. 4.2 Streptococcus agar 4.2.1 Composition. The composition of the streptococcus agar shall be as follows: 4.2.2 Preparation. Add
11、 the ingredients to the water and heat to boiling to dissolve. Adjust the pH so that it will be7.2 after sterilizing. Dispense in flasks in convenient volumes and sterilize for10min at1211C. Cool to about60C and add1mL of a filter-sterilized1% aqueous solution of triphenyltetrazolium chloride per100
12、mL of sterile medium. Mix to obtain uniform distribution. Cool to45C and prepare the plates. NOTEIt is recommended that a dehydrated complete medium (also known as KF streptococcus agar) be used following the manufacturers instructions. WARNING. Sodium azide is toxic and great care is required in th
13、e preparation of the medium. It also forms explosive compounds with metals and before disposal should be rendered safe by addition of excess sodium nitrite. 5 Apparatus NOTEFor details of apparatus including its preparation and sterilization, seeBS4285-1.2. 5.1 Usual microbiological laboratory appar

15、sample in accordance with BS4285-1.1. 8 Procedure 8.1 Test portion and dilutions Measure the test portion and prepare serial decimal dilutions from the test sample (seeBS4285-1.1), making as many dilutions as are necessary to produce acceptable counts at two successive dilutions. 8.2 Inoculation of
16、Petri dishes Inoculate the Petri dishes as described in BS4285-2.1. 8.3 Addition of medium to Petri dishes Add 10mL to 12mL of the medium(4.2.2) at45 1C to each inoculated dish, mix and allow to set as described in BS4285-2.1. proteose peptone 10g yeast extract 10g sodium chloride 5g sodium glycerop

18、nies Count only red or pink colonies, following the procedure given in BS4285-2.1. 9 Calculation and expression of results Calculate the number of organisms and express the results as described in BS4285-2.1. 10 Test report The test report shall give the number and date of this standard, i.e.BS4285-
19、3.11:1985 and state the results obtained. It shall also state any operating conditions not specified in this standard or regarded as optional, as well as any circumstance that may have influenced the result.
