More than 90% of the surviving cells of Escherichia coli NCSM were injured after freezing in water at -78 C. Injury was determined by the ability of cells to form colonies on Trypticase soy agar with yeast extract but not on violet red-bile agar and deoxycholate-lactose agar. Exposure of the injured cells to Brilliant Green-bile broth and lauryl sulfate broth prevented subsequent colony formation on Trypticase soy agar with yeast extract. The freeze-injury could be repaired rapidly in a medium such as Trypticase soy broth with yeast extract (TSYB). The repaired cells formed colonies on violet red-bile agar and deoxycholate-lactose agar and were not inhibited by Brilliant Green-bile broth and lauryl sulfate broth. At least 90% of the cells repaired in TSYB within 30 min at 20 to 45 C and began multiplication within 2 h at 25 C. When the cells were frozen in different foods, 60 to 90% of the survivors were injured. Repair of the injured cells occurred in foods during 1 h at 25 C, but generally repair was greater and more reproducible when the foods were incubated in TSYB. The study indicated that the repair of freeze-injured coliform bacteria should be accomplished before such cells are exposed to selective media for their enumeration. 相似文献

Exposure of Salmonella senftenberg 4969 to sublethal heating in phosphate buffer, pH 7·0, at 52· produced thermally injured cells characterized by their relative inability to form colonies on trypticase soy yeast extract agar compared to minimal medium (M9) agar. During subsequent incubation at 37· in liquid media, more injured cells were capable of repair in M9 than in nutrient media used for pre-enrichment purposes. M9 was superior to lactose broth as a liquid holding medium to restore the ability of injured cells to grow on both rich and selective agar media. The addition of food products produced a more favourable environment for the repair of thermally injured cells in M9 rather than lactose broth. Pre-enrichment in M9 was 100 times more effective than using lactose broth as the preliminary step in the detection of S. senftenberg in laboratory pasteurized liquid egg albumen. 相似文献

Freezing an aqueous suspension of Escherichia coli NCSM at -78 C for 10 min, followed by thawing in water at 8 C for 30 min, resulted in the death of approximately 50% of the cells, as determined by their inability to form colonies on Trypticase soy agar containing 0.3% yeast extract (TSYA). Among the survivors, more than 90% of the cells were injured, as they failed to form colonies on TSYA containing 0.1% deoxycholate. Microscope counts and optical density determinations at 600 nm suggested that death from freezing was not due to lysis of the cells. Death and the injury were accompanied by the loss of 260- and 280-nm absorbing materials from the intracellular pool. Injury was reversible as the injured cells repaired in many suitable media. The rate of repair was rapid and maximum in a complex nutrient medium such as Trypticase soy broth supplemented with yeast extract. However, inorganic phosphate, with or without MgSO4, was able to facilitate repair. Repair in phosphate was dependent on the pH, the temperature, and the concentration of phosphate. 相似文献

After Escherichia coli was injured by freezing, the repair process was studied during incubation of the cells for 2 hr at 25 C in 0.5% K(2)HPO(4) at pH 7.0 in the presence of specific metabolic inhibitors. The repair in K(2)HPO(4) was not affected by inhibitors of the synthesis of protein, nucleic acids, and mucopeptide. These inhibitors prevented growth of the repaired cells in a minimal broth at 35 C for 24 hr (except actinomycin D and hydroxyurea). Several uncouplers of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis reduced the repair process in K(2)HPO(4), but only cyanide and azide prevented growth in minimal medium. Data indicated that the cells synthesized energy in the form of ATP and probably utilized it for the repair process. Addition of ATP also facilitated the repair of injury. The freeze-injured cells showed extreme susceptibility to surface-active agents and lysozyme. The repaired cells, like the uninjured cells, became relatively resistant to these compounds. 相似文献

Procedures were developed to evaluate thermal injury to three strains of Yersinia enterocolitica (serotypes 0:3, 0:8, and 0:17). Serotype 0:17 (atypical strain) was more sensitive to bile salts no. 3 (BS) and to sublethal heat treatment than the typical strains, 0:3 and 0:8. When the 0:3, 0:8, and 0:17 serotypes were thermally stressed in 0.1 M PO4 buffer, pH 7.0, at 47 degrees C for 70, 60, and 12 min, respectively, greater than 99% of the total viable cell population was injured. Injury was determined by the ability of cells to form colonies on brain heart infusion (BHI) agar, but not on Trypticase soy agar (TSA) plus 0.6% BS for serotypes 0:3 and 0:8 and TSA plus 0.16% BS for 0:17. Heat injury of serotype 0:17 cells for 15 min in 0.1 M PO4 buffer caused an approximate 1,000-fold reduction in cell numbers on selective media as compared with cells heated in pork infusion (PI), BHI broth, and 10% nonfat dry milk (NFDM). The extended lag and resuscitation period in BHI broth was 2.5 times greater for 0:17 cells injured in 0.1 M PO4 than for cells injured in BHI or PI. The rate and extent of repair of Y. enterocolitica 0:17 cells in three recovery media were directly related to the heating menstruum used for injury. The use of metabolic inhibitors demonstrated that ribonucleic acid synthesis was required for repair, whereas deoxyribonucleic, cell wall, and protein synthesis were not necessary for recovery of 0:17 cells injured in 0.1 M PO4 buffer, BHI, or PI. Inhibition of respiration by 2,4-dinitrophenol slowed repair only for 0:17 cells injured in 0.1 M PO4 buffer, not for cells injured in PI or BHI. 相似文献

Over 99% of the viable cells of Escherichia coli K-12 were injured after a 60-min exposure to 0.3 M sodium acetate buffer at pH 4.2. Injured cells were those able to grow on Trypticase soy agar but unable to grow on violet red bile agar. The extent of both death and injury of acid-treated cells increased with decreasing pH or increasing concentration of acid. Injured cells were able to recover their colony-forming ability on violet red bile agar by incubation in Trypticase soy broth or potassium phosphate buffer before plating on the agar media. Direct neutralization of the injury medium did not allow recovery and, in fact, was lethal to the population. The addition of metabolic inhibitors to the Trypticase soy recovery broth was used to study the repair process. It was not affected by the presence of inhibitors of protein, cell wall, deoxyribonucleic acid, or ribonucleic acid syntheses. The addition of 2,4-dinitrophenol to the recovery medium also did not inhibit recovery. Actinomycin D and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide were lethal to a proportion of the acidified cells but allowed another fraction of the population to recover. There were no detectable amounts of 260- or 280-nm-absorbing materials leaked during the course of acid injury. 相似文献

Repair of injury induced by freeze-drying Salmonella anatum in nonfat milk solids occurred rapidly after rehydration. Injury in surviving cells was defined as the inability to form colonies on a plating medium containing deoxycholate. Death was defined as inability to form colonies in the same medium without this selective agent. The rate of repair of injury was reduced by lowering the temperature from 35 C to 10 C and was extremely low at 1 C. Repair was independent of influence of pH between 6.0 and 7.0. Repair did not require synthesis of protein, ribonucleic acid, or cell wall mucopeptide, but did require energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesized through oxidative phosphorylation. The requirement for ATP was based on dinitrophenol or cyanide interference with repair. Dinitrophenol activity was pH-dependent; no repair occurred at pH 6.0 and some repair was observed at pH 6.5 and above. Injured cells were extremely sensitive to low concentrations of ethylenedinitrilotetraacetate. This indicated that freeze-drying injury of S. anatum may involve the lipopolysaccharide portion of the cell wall and that repair of this damage requires ATP synthesis. 相似文献

Resuscitation rates of injured Listeria monocytogenes on conventional selective Listeria enrichment broth and nonselective Trypticase soy broth containing 0.6% yeast extract were compared. Cells were heated to 60 degrees C for 5 min or frozen at -20 degrees C for 7 days. Inoculation of Trypticase soy broth-yeast extract with the stressed cells resulted in growth that was superior to that in Listeria enrichment broth. Injured cells were fully recovered at 6 to 8 h. 相似文献

Cultures containing mixed flora from raw milk were heated at 62.8 C for 15, 20, 25, and 30 min. Dilutions were filtered through membrane filters, and the filters were incubated on Trypticase soy broth (TSB) and on TSB plus NaCl (TSBS). The TSB count indicated the total population which survived heating and included injured and uninjured cells. The colonies on TSBS indicated the uninjured cells and were marked by perforating the membrane near the colony. This membrane was then transferred to fresh TSB and incubated further. The injured organisms recovered and formed colonies which could be distinguished from previous colonies of uninjured organisms. Transfer counts on TSB were not substantially different from the initial TSB counts at 15, 20, 25, and 30 min of heating. 相似文献

Proceedings: Repair of injury in Salmonella anatum cells after freezing and thawing in milk 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Fast freezing and slow thawing of Salmonella anatum cells in nonfat milk solids resulted in about 20% death and 50% injury of the cells surviving the treatment. Death was defined as the inability to form colonies on a nonselective plating medium [xylose-lysine-peptone agar (XLP)] after freezing and thawing. Injury was defined as the inability to form colonies on a selective plating medium (XLP with 0.2% sodium desoxycholate added). The injured cells repaired rapidly and within 2 hr at 25 °C, in the presence of 0.1% milk solids; all the injured cells regained the ability to form colonies on the selective medium. The treated cells showed a 1-hr extended lag phase of growth as compared to the unfrozen cells. Milk solids concentration in the freezing and repair menstrua influenced injury, repair of injury, and death. The repair process was affected by the pH and temperature of environment in which the injured cells were incubated. Maximum repair occurred at pH values between 6.0 and 7.4 and temperatures from 25 to 42 °C. The data suggested repair did not require the synthesis of protein, ribonucleic acid, or cell-wall mucopeptide but did require energy synthesis. 相似文献

Heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) production was examined in chlorine-injured and noninjured populations of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) by passive immune hemolysis and Y-1 mouse adrenal tumor cell assays. Sublethally injured populations showed reduced LT production after 1, 2.5, and 4 h incubation in trypticase soy broth plus 0.25% glucose, pH 8.0. Reduction was observed during injury, resuscitation, and for at least 1.5 h following repair. LT levels comparable with that present in noninjured cells were found after 24 h incubation in the same medium, indicating delayed toxigenesis rather than permanent damage. Chlorinated populations failed to incorporate [14C]glucose until repair was completed suggesting a possible explanation for delayed toxin production. The results indicate a temporary loss of virulence among sublethally injured ETEC in chlorinated waters. 相似文献

Summary Heating ofListeria monocytogenes (Scott A strain) in potassium phosphate buffer (0.1 M, pH 7.2) at 52°C for 1 h led to injury, with the heat-injured cells failing to produce colonies on agar medium containing 5% NaCl. The detection of injury was based on the use of differential media: plating on tryptose phosphate broth+2% agar and 1% sodium pyruvate (TPBA+P) and on tryptose phosphate broth+2% agar and 5% NaCl (TPBA+S). Only non-injuredListeria formed colonies on TPBA+S whereas both heat-injured and non-injured cells formed colonies on TPBA+P. The bacterial count on TPBA+P minus that on TPBA+S represents the extent of heat injury. A large number of selective agars were tested and compared to TPBA+P for their ability to support repair and colony formation of heat-injuredL. monocytogenes. Media containing 0.025% phenylethanol, 0.0012–0.0025% acriflavin, 0.1–0.2% potassium tellurite, 0.001% polymyxin B sulfate, 5% NaCl or a combination of these ingredients were detrimental to the recovery of heat-injuredL. monocytogenes. Media currently in use forL. monocytogenes are not satisfactory for the recovery of injured cells. 相似文献

Two strains of Escherichia coli manifested death and repairable injury after being frozen in water or sterile foods at -20 C. The injured survivors were inhibited from forming colonies on violet red bile agar (VRBA) or deoxycholate lactose agar; this inhibition was greater when enumeration was done by the pour plate method instead of the surface or surface-overlay method. Injured cells repaired rapidly in Trypticase soy broth (TSB), and the repair was about maximum after 1 h at 25 C. When the injured cells were added to different foods and incubated at 25 C, repair also occurred; however, recovery was better and more uniform when the samples were mixed with TSB and incubated 1 h at 25 C. Cell multiplication was not evident until after 90 to 120 min at 25 C. The enumeration of coliforms from commercially frozen foods was increased when the thawed samples were mixed with TSB and the cells were allowed to repair 1 h at 25 C. In some samples, the repair permitted at least a 20-fold increase in the coliform count. The associated flora in the commercially frozen foods gave no evidence of impairing the repair of coliforms, nor did they start multiplication prior to 90 min after being incubated in TSB at 25 C. Generally, the plating gave more reproducible recovery of coliforms than did the most probable number method. Also, a higher number of coliforms were obtained by the surface-overlay method of plating using VRBA. 相似文献

Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was determined during the growth cycle of unheated and heat-injured cells of Staphylococcus aureus MF-31. SOd activity levels dropped in unheated cells during the lag phase, increased during logarithmic phase, and became constant in the stationary phase. Cells which were sublethally heated (52 degrees c, 20 min) in 100 mM phosphate buffer and subsequently allowed to recover in tryptic soy broth demonstrated an 85% decrease in SOD activity upon inoculation into recovery medium. As the injured cells repaired the heat-induced lesions and entered logarithmic growth, SOD levels rapidly increased. Heat-injured cells allowed to recover in tryptic soy broth plus 10% NaCl showed similar decreases in SOD activity levels. However, no subsequent increase was observed when specific activity was calculated based on milligrams of protein. 相似文献

The D values of Yersinia enterocolitica strains IP134, IP107, and WA, irradiated at 25 degrees C in Trypticase soy broth, ranged from 9.7 to 11.8 krad. When irradiated in ground beef at 25 and -30 degrees C, the D value of strain IP107 was 19.5 and 38.8 krad, respectively. Cells suspended in Trypticase soy broth were more sensitive to storage at -20 degrees C than those mixed in ground beef. The percentages of inactivation and of injury (inability to form colonies in the presence of 3.0% NaCl) of cells stored in ground beef for 10 days at -20 degrees C were 70 and 23%, respectively. Prior irradiation did not alter the cell's sensitivity to storage at -20 degrees C, nor did storage at -20 degrees C alter the cell's resistance to irradiation at 25 degrees C. Added NaCl concentrations of up to 4.0% in Trypticase soy agar (TSA) (which contains 0.5% NaCl) had little effect on colony formation at 36 degrees C of unirradiated Y. enterocolitica. With added 4.0% NaCl, 79% of the cells formed colonies at 36 degrees C; with 5.0% NaCl added, no colonies were formed. Although 2.5% NaCl added to ground beef did not sensitize Y. enterocolitica cells to irradiation, when added to TSA it reduced the number of apparent radiation survivors. Cells uninjured by irradiation formed colonies on TSA when incubated at either 36 or 5 degrees C. More survivors of an exposure to 60 krad were capable of recovery and forming colonies on TSA when incubated at 36 degrees C for 1 day than at 5 degrees C for 14 days. This difference in count was considered a manifestation of injury to certain survivors of irradiation. 相似文献

The ability of the divalent cations magnesium, iron, calcium and manganese; yeast extract; pyruvate; catalase; and the carbohydrates glucose, lactose, sucrose, esculin, fructose, galactose, maltose, and mannose to facilitate repair of heat-injured Listeria monocytogenes and Listeria innocua was evaluated. Listeria populations were injured by heating at 56 degrees C for 50 min. To determine the effects on repair, Trypticase soy broth (TSB) was supplemented with each medium component to be evaluated. Repair occurred to various degrees within 5 h in TSB supplemented with glucose, lactose, sucrose, yeast extract, pyruvate, or catalase. Chelex-exchanged TSB was supplemented with divalent cations; magnesium and iron cations were found to have a role in repair. Listeria repair broth (LRB) was formulated by utilizing the components that had the greatest impact upon repair. When incubated in LRB, heat-injured Listeria cells completed repair in 5 h. After the repair, acriflavin, nalidixic acid, and cycloheximide were added to LRB to yield final concentrations identical to those of the selective enrichment broths used in the procedures of the Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The efficacy of LRB in promoting repair and enrichment of heat-injured Listeria cells was compared with that of existing selective enrichment broths. Repair was not observed in the Food and Drug Administration enrichment broth, Listeria enrichment broth, or University of Vermont enrichment broth. The final Listeria populations after 24 h of incubation in selective enrichment media were 1.7 x 10(8) to 9.1 x 10(8) CFU/ml; populations in LRB consistently averaged 2.5 x 10(11) to 8.2 x 10(11) CFU/ml. 相似文献
