A study of the inhibitory effect of 24 different combinations of brilliant green and bile salts concentrations was conducted, using seven species of microorganisms capable of fermenting mannitol. The inhibitory effect of brilliant green decreased as the bile salts concentration was increased. Staphylococcus aureus and Proteus rettgeri were inhibited by all test media. Escherichia coli was inhibited in all but two combinations of brilliant green and bile salts. Aerobacter aerogenes generally followed a pattern of growth similar to that of three species of salmonellae. Three of the 24 combinations of brilliant green and bile salts showed little or no inhibition of salmonellae but did inhibit the other organisms studied.  相似文献

Salmonellae in the environment remain a potential source of disease. Low numbers of salmonellae have been detected and enumerated from environmental samples by most-probable-number methods which require careful colony selection from a plated agar medium. A modified xylose lysine brilliant green medium was prepared to control the loss of selectivity caused by heating the brilliant green component. Added agar reduced colony spreading. The medium contained 47 g of xylose lysine agar base per liter; the agar content was adjusted to 2%, autoclaved, cooled to 50 degrees C, and then amended just before pouring to include H2S indicator and 7 ppm (7 ml of 1:1,000 brilliant green per liter) of unheated brilliant green dye. H2S-positive salmonellae were easily detected from sewage sludge compost to the exclusion of most other gram-negative bacteria. As a result, fewer non-salmonellae were picked for further most-probable-number analysis, greatly reducing the work load associated with the most-probable-number method. Direct plating was possible for enumerating salmonellae in laboratory composts containing ca. 10(3) or more salmonellae.  相似文献

An attempt is made to determine the optimum concentration of bile and brilliant green in brilliant green lactose peptone bile medium, for use in the presumptive test in the bacteriological examination of water. Comparisons, showing the effect of bile and brilliant green upon the development of the colon organism, were made by making actual bacterial counts after a definite short incubation period. The results indicate that the original medium described by Muer and Harris, (5% dried bile, 1% peptone, 1% lactose, and 1:10,000 billiant green) when adjusted to pH = 7.1, did not show an appreciable inhibition of the colon organism. It is further shown that a medium containing 2% bile, 1% peptone, 1% lactose and 1:75,000 brilliant green supports a more rapid development of the colon organism at pH = 6.9 than does the original brilliant green bile medium at its optimum pH.  相似文献

In this paper a method which allows the measure of microbial death rate during spray-drying by means of a streptomycin-resistant mutant that can be grown on a streptomycin-containing agar is described. Plate counts of Microbacterium lacticum, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus recovered from skim milk powders were done on plate count agar in the presence and absence of streptomycin and on various selective media. The powders were produced from evaporated milk previously inoculated with those organisms. Our results showed that the proposed method allows the recovery of 78% of M. lacticum, 61% of E. coli, and 100% of S. aureus that survived spray-drying. Recoveries of surviving E. coli on violet bile agar and brilliant green bile 2% were 34% and 29% respectively. Baird-Parker and mannitol salt agar media allow the recovery of all surviving S. aureus, thus showing that S. aureus cells did not lose their ability to grow in media containig 7.5% NaCl. Our results show that physiological injury of the cells during spray-drying differs from injury due to heating only.  相似文献

Several selected Salmonella strains did not multiply in tetrathionate brilliant green bile medium when the inoculum was small and the medium was incubated at 43° C. Gradual heating from 20° to 43° C and dilution of the medium with buffered peptone water (1:10) containing egg yolk did not decrease its inhibitory properties. It became less inhibitory, however, after the growth of other Enterobacteriaceae. These findings stress the advantage of using non-selective pre-enrichment since in that case the Muller-Kauffmann tetrathionate broth will be inoculated with a large number of salmonellae and other Enterobacteriaceae thus facilitating the isolation of the former.  相似文献

The following studies were done in response to questions regarding the adoption and use of the membrane filter (MF) technique for testing drinking water for the total coliform indicator group. A comparison with the most-probable-number technique showed that MF procedures with m-Endo agar LES were somewhat superior to the most-probable-number methods in terms of numbers of coliform organims recovered. Medium preparation and storage studies indicated that rehydration of m-Endo agar LES should be done with boiling water for less than 15 min, that m-Endo agar LES should not be exposed to light for more than 4 to 6 h, and that m-Endo agar LES plates may be used for up to 4 weeks and broth verification media for up to 3 weeks under given storage conditions. MF culture colonies were commonly found which did not produce sheen as expected for coliforms and yet were verified as coliforms. The occurrence and morphology of these atypical colonies were studied. Parallel inoculation of both lauryl tryptose (LT) and brilliant green bile (BGB) broth was found to be a better colony verification approach than recommended LT preenrichment before transfer to BGB. Comparison of parallel verification results indicated very little justification for the use of LT medium in MF verification procedures. In the case of overgrown or confluent cultures, the best coliform recoveries resulted from swabbing the MF plate and directly inoculating BGB medium with the swab. The occurrence of overgrowth was defined and evidence was collected suggesting that overgrowth is a function of sample holding time. Evaluation of routine test data and bacterial population reductions as a function of time indicated that nonquantitative recovery of coliforms may not be significantly affected for at least a 72-h sample holding time.  相似文献

Coliforms, primarily Citrobacter freundii, gave negative verification results in the total-coliform membrane filtration test. The organisms produced gas from lactose in brilliant green bile broth but not in lauryl tryptose broth. The discrepancy was related to the peptone sources used in the media.  相似文献

Antimicrobial activity of brilliant green dye in Trypticase soy broth (BBL) is reduced and ultimately destroyed by prolonged autoclaving at 121 C. Loss of antimicrobial activity is accompanied by decolorization of the dye. This is consistent with other evidence that antimicrobial activity of brilliant green resides in the colored dye ion. The dye is not decolorized when heated in distilled water or peptone, but is decolorized by heating in glucose, glycine, or sodium dodecyl sulfate, showing that decolorization results from reaction with components of the medium. To ensure optimal results, it is recommended that bacteriological media be sterilized by heat prior to addition of brilliant green dye.  相似文献

The growth of 68 strains of Salmonella typhi , 697 other Salmonella strains and 213 strains of other Gram negative intestinal bacteria on 8 plating media was assessed semi-quantitatively. These media were found to be differentially inhibitory to different Salmonella serotypes. The combined use of two plating media, brilliant green MacConkey agar and deoxycholate citrate agar, allowed potentially the recovery of the maximum number of Salmonella strains. If only one medium was used, brilliant green MacConkey agar would appear to be the best plating medium for the isolation of non-typhoid salmonellas in general and S. choleraesuis in particular. Xylose lysine deoxycholate agar, on which a certain proportion of salmonellas failed to yield typical, recognizable colonies, was found not to be a good plating medium for their isolation.  相似文献

Inhibition of Injured Escherichia coli by Several Selective Agents   总被引:9,自引:9,他引:0       下载免费PDF全文
A population of Escherichia coli ML30 cells was exposed to a quaternary ammonium compound, and injury to the cells was measured by a comparison of counts on Trypticase Soy Agar and Violet Red Bile Agar. Substantial injury could not be detected with a minimal medium. The ingredients of Violet Red Bile Agar were tested against damaged cells. The bile salts mixture alone in the medium prevented as many injured cells from growing as did any combination of the selective agents and inhibited as many injured bacteria as were inhibited by Violet Red Bile Agar itself. These dyes and salts were similarly assayed in minimal agar, and comparable results were obtained. Individual bile salts and other potential selective agents were added to the minimal medium, and the media were tested for inhibition of injured E. coli. Sodium deoxycholate was the bile salt most inhibitory to damaged E. coli cells.  相似文献

Discrepancies in the Enumeration of Escherichia coli   总被引:7,自引:6,他引:1       下载免费PDF全文
Stationary-phase cells of Escherichia coli were enumerated by the pour plate method on Trypticase soy agar containing 0.3% yeast extract (TSYA), violet red-bile agar, and desoxycholate-lactose agar, and by the most-probable-number method in Brilliant Green-bile broth and lauryl sulfate broth. Maximum counts were assumed to be those on TSYA. In general, numbers detected were lower with the selective solid media and higher with the selective liquid media. Inhibitory effects, especially on selective solid media varied with the strains of E. coli. The lower detection on selective solid media was partly due to the stress induced in some cells by the temperature of the melted media used in the pour plate method. These cells apparently failed to repair and form colonies in the selective media. Improved detection on the selective solid media was achieved by using 1% nonfat milk solids, 1% peptone, or 1% MgSO(4).7H(2)O in the dilution blanks. Higher detection on selective agar media was effected by surface plating or by surface-overlay plating of the cells. The surface-overlay method appeared to be superior for the direct enumeration of E. coli in foods.  相似文献

Different serotypes of salmonellas were compared for selectivity and efficiency of recovery using 11 plating media. No optimal growth was obtained after 24h incubation in any of the media, but after 48h, brilliant green, brilliant green-phenol red-lactose-sucrose, bismuth sulphite, xylose-lysine-deoxycholate and Hektoen enteric agars showed optimal recovery of all the salmonella serotypes.
Xylose-lysine-deoxycholate and brilliant green-phenol red-lactose-sucrose agars were the most selective media for all salmonella serotypes. Addition of 10 μg/ml of sodium novobiocin to the tryptic soy-xylose-lysine and tryptic soy-brilliant green agars significantly improved their selectivity but reduced or inhibited the growth of some salmonella serotypes, including Salmonella typhi. Xylose-lysine-deoxycholate agar gave the highest recovery percentage of stressed salmonellas with a double-agar layer technique. Good recovery was also obtained on brilliant green-phenol red-lactose-sucrose, tryptic soy-brilliant green, tryptic soy-brilliant green-novobiocin, tryptic, soy-xylose-lysine and tryptic soy-xylose-lysine-novobiocin agars. Salmonella-shigella agar was the least efficient medium for the recovery of salmonellas under stress-induced or non-stressed conditions.  相似文献

A 1-year study of marine water sample from six beach locations showed that the most-probable-number method failed to recover significant numbers of coli-forms. Modifying this method by transferring, after 48 h, presumptive negatives (growth and no gas production) to confirmed and fecal coliform media significantly improved recovery. Tests which were presumptive negative but confirmed as fecal coliform positive were designated as false negatives. Most-probable-number method false negatives occurred throughout the year, with 143 of 270 samples collected producing false negatives. More than 50% of fecal coliform false-negative isolates were Escherichia coli. Inclusion of false-negative tubes into the coliform most-probable-number method data resulted in increased violation of the California ocean water contact sports standard at all sites. More than 20% of the samples collected were in violation of this standard. These data indicate that modification of the most-probable-number method increases detection of coliform numbers in the marine environment.  相似文献
