ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in
13、the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % o

21、 Standard specifies a method for the enumeration of characteristic microorganisms in yogurt by means of the colony-count technique at 37 C. The method is applicable to yogurts in which both characteristic microorganisms (Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus) are
22、 present and viable. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

25、 definitions apply. 3.1 characteristic microorganisms in yogurt Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus as detected under the conditions specified in this International Standard 3.2 Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus thermophilic microorganism which forms
26、lenticular, often sharp-shaped, colonies of diameter 1 mm to 3 mm on acidified MRS medium under the conditions specified in this International Standard NOTE Under a microscope, these microorganisms appear as rods, generally short, but sometimes in longer forms. They are non-spore forming, Gram-posit
27、ive, non-motile and catalase-negative. 3.3 Streptococcus thermophilus thermophilic microorganism which forms lenticular colonies of diameter 1 mm to 2 mm on M17 medium under the conditions specified in this International Standard ISO 7889:2003(E) IDF 117:2003(E) 2 ISO and IDF 2003 All rights reserve
28、dNOTE Under a microscope, these microorganisms appear as spherical or ovoid cells (of diameter 0,7 m to 0,9 m) in pairs or in long chains. They are Gram-positive and catalase-negative. 4 Principle 4.1 Decimal dilutions of the test sample are inoculated into: a) acidified MRS medium, followed by anae
29、robic incubation at 37 C 1 C for 72 h, for the count of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus; b) complete medium (M17), followed by aerobic incubation at 37 C 1 C for 48 h, for the count of Streptococcus thermophilus. 4.2 The colonies are counted and confirmed by means of appropriate tests. 4
30、.3 The number of characteristic microorganisms per gram of sample is calculated from the number of colonies obtained on plates at dilution levels so as to give a significant result. 5 Culture media, diluents and reagents Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade, unless otherwise specified, a
31、nd distilled or demineralized water or water of equivalent purity. See also ISO 6887-1 and ISO 8261IDF 122. 5.1 Diluent See ISO 6887-1 and ISO 8261IDF 122. 5.2 Culture media Use freshly prepared culture media (MRS and M17) which shall not be exposed to direct sunlight. If the prepared culture media
32、are not used immediately, they shall, unless otherwise specified, be cooled and stored at between 2 C and 4 C for no longer than 1 week and under conditions which do not produce any change in their composition. As for reagents, see storage conditions specified in ISO 7218. 5.2.1 Acidified MRS medium

Cool in another water bath (6.7) to 50 C. Adjust the pH so that after sterilization it is 5,4 0,1 at 25 C 1 C by adding acetic acid (5.3.3) an
36、d checking with the pH-meter (6.8). Transfer the medium in 100 ml portions into 150 ml bottles (6.10) or in 200 ml portions into 250 ml bottles (6.10). Sterilize for 15 min in an autoclave at 121 C 1 C. NOTE 1 MRS medium is highly sensitive to heat treatment which may cause differences according to
37、the autoclave used. NOTE 2 Comparative tests have shown that commercially available MRS media may give counts that are lower than those given by the MRS medium prepared in accordance with this International Standard. Therefore, if used, the former should be checked against the medium prepared accord
38、ing to this International Standard. This may cause problems for yogurt producers and the authorities investigating the requested minimum cell count in yogurt products. Before beginning the bacteriological examination, completely melt the required amount of medium in a water bath (6.7) set at boiling
39、, or by steaming in a partially closed container. Then cool it in another water bath (6.7). 5.2.2 M17 medium (see reference 8) 5.2.2.1 Basic medium 5.2.2.1.1 Composition Peptone 1 (tryptic digest of casein) 2,5 g Peptone 2 (peptic digest of meat) 2,5 g Peptone 3 (papain digest of soya) 5,0 g Yeast e
