The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried
17、out through ISO technicalcommittees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established hasthe right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, inliaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO col
18、laborates closely with the International ElectrotechnicalCommission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
19、circulated to the member bodies for voting.Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 10705 may be the subject of patentrights. ISO shall not be he
20、ld responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.International Standard ISO 10705-4 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 147, Water quality,Subcommittee SC 4, Microbiological methods.ISO 10705 consists of the following parts, under the general title Water quality Detection and enum

31、 Such bacteriophages produce visible plaques (clearance zones) in a confluent lawn of host bacteria grown underappropriate culture conditions.ISO 10705-4:2001(E)2 ISO 2001 All rights reservedNOTE 2 A general description of bacteriophages infecting B. fragilis is given in annex A.4 Safety precautions
32、The host strain used in this part of ISO 10705 is non-pathogenic to man and animals and should be handled inaccordance with the normal (national or international) safety procedures for bacteriological laboratories.Bacteriophages infecting Bacteroides fragilis are non-pathogenic for man and animals,
33、but some types are veryresistant to drying. Appropriate precautions shall be taken to prevent cross-contamination of test materials,particularly when examining or handling cultures of high titre or when inoculating cultures of the host strains. Suchprocedures shall be carried out in a biohazard cabi
34、net or a separate area of the laboratory. Chloroform is acarcinogenic substance. Observe relevant safety precautions or use an alternative method of equal efficacy.It is recommended that personnel using this method have or acquire some experience in handling anaerobicbacteria.5PrincipleThe sample is
35、 mixed with a small volume of semi-solid nutrient medium. A culture of host-strain is added and platedon a solid nutrient medium. After this, incubation and reading of plaques take place. The results are expressed as thenumber of plaque-forming particles (also named plaque-forming units, pfu) per un

49、0.1 Culturing and maintenance of host strains10.1.1 GeneralThe culturing and maintenance of host strains involves several stages which are summarized in Figure 2.Bacteroides fragilis is an obligate anaerobe. However, it does not require handling under conditions of strictanaerobiosis. Incubation of cultures in solid media should be carried out in an anaerobic cabinet, or anaerobic jars orbags. When using liquid media it is sufficient to ensure that containers are completely filled a
