The work of preparing International Standards is norma

10、lly carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in th

11、e work. 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 the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare

12、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 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some

13、of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 8607 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Food products. This first edition of ISO 8607 cancels and replaces ISO/TR 8607:1991, which ha

14、s been technically revised. ISO 8607:2003(E) ISO 2003 All rights reserved vIntroduction The quantitative microbiological control of the hygienic collection and handling of bovine semen is of great importance in order to predict the efficiency of artificial insemination and to fulfil the requirements

15、 of biosecurity (see reference 1). For the same reason, the investigation of bacterial contamination and the possible presence of facultative pathogenic microorganisms in the preserved bovine semen is also very important. There is a need for an international method suitable for the determination of

16、the microbial count in frozen semen, which indicates the hygienic status during collection, handling and storage. The aim of the colony- count method specified in this International Standard is to enumerate the saprophytic microorganisms that are originally present in and/or are transmitted to the b

17、ovine semen from the environment. With this method only the total count of bacteria is detected, mainly the aerophilic and mesophilic saprophytic ones, as well as a few facultative pathogenic microorganisms that are not very sensitive to environmental conditions. Since samples of frozen bovine semen

18、 contain additional antibiotics, the determination of microbiological contamination of this type of sample is slightly different from the commonly used microbiological methods. When examining preserved semen samples in low dilutions, the number of colonies may be lower than expected and do not follo

19、w the usual proportions. Therefore relatively high decimal dilutions should be used to compensate for the inhibition effect of the antibiotics. As a result of the necessary high dilutions, 15 or less colonies can be observed in each Petri dish and this result should be accepted. This differs from th

20、e usual microbiological examinations of food where the sample dilution can be chosen in such a way that the number of colonies is more than 15 in a Petri dish so more precise examination is possible. Microbial cells often occur as clumps or groups in the samples. Whereas shaking samples and dilution

21、s may uniformly distribute the clumps of bacteria, this may not completely disrupt the clumps themselves into single cells. Consequently, each colony that appears on the medium can arise from a clump of cells or from a single cell and therefore it is more precise to express the result as the number

22、of colony-forming units (CFU) of microorganisms than to give the number of microorganisms (see reference 2). This International Standard does not specify a tolerable limit value for the total CFU of bacteria, which may be a consumer requirement in trade. This should be given in commercial contracts.

24、 Standard specifies a method for the enumeration of living aerobic microorganisms present in the frozen semen of breeding bulls. The colonies growing in a solid medium after aerobic incubation at 37 C are counted. The microbiological contamination of the sample is expressed as a number of colony- fo

Thawed

46、 test samples may be kept in a refrigerator at 4 C but for no longer than 1 h. 9 Procedure 9.1 Test portion, initial suspension and dilutions Prepare the initial suspension in accordance with ISO 6887-1 in a safety cabinet. The number of further dilutions to be carried out depends on the antibiotics

47、 content of the initial suspension as specified below. a) If the initial suspension contains the usual content of antibiotics i.e. 10 3International Units (IU) 3)of penicillin and 1 mg of streptomycin or another broad-spectrum antibiotic per millilitre, use a 10 5final dilution. b) If the quantity o

48、f antibiotics differs from that mentioned in a), use a final dilution such that the content of penicillin is not more than 0,1 IU/ml and that of the broad-spectrum antibiotic not more than 0,1 g/ml. NOTE A higher antibiotics concentration can inhibit growth of the microorganisms and so produce false

49、 results. 9.2 Inoculation and incubation 9.2.1 Take two sterile Petri dishes (6.4). Transfer, by means of a sterile pipette (6.5), 1 ml of the final dilution of the initial suspension (see 9.1) to each dish. Take two other sterile Petri dishes. Using a new sterile pipette, transfer to each dish 1 ml of the dilution which is diluted by one order of magnitude less than the final one. 3) The IU is the determined quantity of internationally accepted reference material.
