培养基灭菌方式对细菌分离效率的影响

自然界蕴含大量未/难培养微生物,分离这些微生物对理论研究和资源开发具有重要意义。本研究使用高压灭菌和过滤除菌方式制备培养基,采用稀释涂布方法,从红树林灰泥样品中分离获得123株细菌,通过16S rRNA基因序列分析对其进行鉴定,进而探究培养基灭菌方式对细菌分离效果的影响。结果表明：过滤除菌培养基生长的单菌落数目（339±82）个显著多于高压灭菌培养基生长的单菌落数目（179±65）个;两种培养基分离细菌的群落结构在门、科和属分类水平上总体相似,但优势类群的数目和少数类群存在差异;过滤除菌培养基分离细菌的Shannon Wiener’s指数、均匀度、新种率、基因多样性均高于高压灭菌培养基,而其与近缘模式菌株相似度的平均值和中位数则低于高压灭菌培养基。因此,过滤除菌培养基分离获得细菌的多样性、均匀性和新颖性均高于高压灭菌培养基。本研究首次探究培养基灭菌方式对细菌分离效果的影响,具有更高分离效率的过滤除菌培养基为未/难培养微生物菌株资源获取提供了借鉴。

A new isolation medium for the revovery ofYersinia enterocolitica from environmental sources

Yersinia enterocolitica has been isolated from a wide variety of sources throughout the world. The isolation of this organism requires special awareness from bacteriologists. To ease this procedure, we have developed a new isolation medium—BABY 4—meant to be used for environmental studies. Compared with previously recommended media, such as SS agar, SS-D agar, and urea-novobiocin agar, it allows easy detection ofY. enterocolitica in various types of waters. It counterselects Enterobacteriaceae species fromY. enterocolitica in a ratio of 10^–1 to 10^–5 and makes quantitative studies of environmental sources possible. This medium also allows the detection after 3–4 days' incubation of as few as 10³ Y. enterocolitica per gram of stool.

Performance of a new chromogenic plating medium for the isolation of Listeria monocytogenes from marine environments

AIMS: This study investigated the performance of a new chromogenic plating medium for the detection of Listeria monocytogenes from naturally contaminated samples obtained from marine environments in Morocco in comparison with the conventional plating media PALCAM and Oxford. METHODS: A total of 479 marine samples (sea water, sediment and mussels) were collected from 16 littoral sites in the region of Agadir (western centre of Morocco). They were examined for the presence of L. monocytogenes using a slight modification of the standardized French method (AFNOR V 08-055) for the detection of L. monocytogenes from food and three different isolation media: PALCAM, Oxford and a new chromogenic plating medium. RESULTS AND SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY: The Oxford and the new chromogenic plating media were found relatively more efficient than the PALCAM medium for the isolation of L. monocytogenes (chi-square test, P < 0.05) from marine samples. However, the new chromogenic plating medium was significantly more selective for L. monocytogenes (P < 0.005) than the two other isolation media as 87.5% of the suspect colonies on this medium were indeed confirmed through identification of the isolates vs 12.7% for Oxford and only 3.8% for the PALCAM medium.

Usefulness of Chromogenic CromoCen® AGN agar medium for the identification of the genus Aeromonas: Assessment of faecal samples

Selective screening media for the detection and identification of Aeromonas strains are needed to guide primary isolation procedures in the clinical laboratory. This study compared the selective CromoCen? AGN chromogenic agar medium for the detection and identification of Aeromonas strains that were isolated from various samples against the conventional selective agar media that are commonly used for the isolation of this organism in food, environmental and clinical samples. The Miles and Misra and ecometric methods were used to evaluate the microbiological performance of CromoCen? AGN chromogenic agar medium, which was shown to be satisfactory. A total of 14 reference Aeromonas strains, 44 wild strains and 106 clinical stool specimens were examined using both non-chromogenic selective agars that are commonly used for Aeromonas isolation and CromoCen? AGN agar. The latter exhibited 94.73% sensitivity and 100% specificity for the various samples. On CromoCen? AGN agar medium, Aeromonas formed colonies with light green, greenish and salmon pigments with or without a surrounding wide transparent zone (halo) of 2-3mm in diameter around the entire border. This medium is recommended for the isolation and potential identification of the Aeromonas genus.     

Listeria monocytogenes: diagnostic problems

The first isolation methods for the detection of Listeria spp. were generally based on the direct culture of samples on simple agar media, but isolation of the pathogenic Listeria monocytogenes was difficult. In time, new techniques were developed, based on a variety of selective and elective agents in isolation and enrichment media, which gained better and quicker results. Current reference methods allow the recovery of L. monocytogenes from a variety of foods with relative ease. However, more comparative studies are needed to select one horizontal method. It is suggested that the procedure of the International Organization for Standardization is a good base for such comparisons.     

Transient gene expression in HEK293 and vero cells immobilised on microcarriers

The upscale of transient gene expression (TGE) gained popularity over the last decade as it drastically shortens timelines for the production of recombinant proteins. Bottlenecks of the method turned out to be media composition and media exchange, which is usually required as conditioned medium drastically reduces the transfection efficiency. Media exchanges are typically done by centrifugation, which limits upscale, is prone to contamination or is a high cost factor when continuous centrifuges are used. In this work HEK/EBNA cells were grown and transfected on microcarriers. Cell immobilisation allows easy media exchange after sedimentation. The transfection method was optimised regarding polyethylenimine (PEI) concentration, optimal DNA:PEI ratio, type of PEI, incubation time and polyplex formation time. In addition to HEK, Vero cells were also transfected using the same protocol. The method was established in spinner flasks and scaled up to a 1.5 litre stirred tank reactor. Transfection efficiencies of up to 33% with pCEP4 and 98% with pMAX were reached. Additionally immobilisation on microcarriers was used to retain the cells during cultivation, thus allowing media replacement and prolonging cultivation time from one to two weeks with continuous expression of the recombinant protein.     

Evaluation of isolation methods for pathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica from pig intestinal content

Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of four isolation methods for the detection of pathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica from pig intestinal content. Methods and Results: The four methods comprised of 15 isolation steps using selective enrichments (irgasan–ticarcillin–potassium chlorate and modified Rappaport broth) and mildly selective enrichments at 4 or 25°C. Salmonella–Shigella‐desoxycholate–calcium chloride agar, cefsulodin–irgasan–novobiocin agar were used as plating media. The most sensitive method detected 78% (53/68) of the positive samples. Individual isolation steps using cold enrichment as the only enrichment or as a pre‐enrichment step with further selective enrichment showed the highest sensitivities (55–66%). All isolation methods resulted in high numbers of suspected colonies not confirmed as pathogenic Y. enterocolitica. Conclusions: Cold enrichment should be used in the detection of pathogenic Y. enterocolitica from pig intestinal contents. In addition, more than one parallel isolation step is needed. Significance and Impact of the Study: The study shows that depending on the isolation method used for Y. enterocolitica, the detected prevalence of Y. enterocolitica in pig intestinal contents varies greatly. More selective and sensitive isolation methods need to be developed for pathogenic Y. enterocolitica.     

Comparison of selective enrichment media for the detection of Salmonella in poultry faeces

AIMS: The aim of this study was to compare the results of semisolid media and Rappaport-Vassiliadis (RV) medium for the detection of Salmonella in faecal samples from broiler and layer flocks. METHODS AND RESULTS: Three different selective enrichment media were used: (a) RV medium; (b) diagnostic semisolid Salmonella medium (DIASALM) and (c) modified semisolid RV (MSRV) medium. The performance of DIASALM and MSRV was significantly better compared with RV. CONCLUSION: The results of this study indicate that approximately 95% of the samples containing Salmonella would be detected by a combination of a semisolid medium (MSRV or DIASALM) and RV. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The International Standard method ISO 6579, including RV and selenite cystine broth as selective enrichment media, is most frequently used for the isolation of Salmonella from poultry faeces. This study reveals that there are more suitable combinations of selective enrichment media.
