19、 holder. Filters stacked in-tandemas described tend to clog more slowly when turbid material isfiltered through them. Prepare several filter stacks.8. Summary of Procedure8.1 The adsorption procedure relies upon adsorption ofviruses from the liquid phase to the sludge solids, which areconcentrated b

20、y centrifugation. The supernatant is discarded.Viruses are desorbed from the solids by physicochemicalmeans and further concentrated by organic flocculation. De-contamination is accomplished by filtration.9. Procedure9.1 Conditioning of SludgeIn the absence of experiencethat dictates otherwise, use

21、100-mL volumes for liquid sludgesand 100-g quantities for digested, dewatered sludges.9.1.1 Measure 100 mL of well-mixed sludge in a graduated100-mL cylinder. Mix sludge vigorously immediately before itis poured into cylinder because sludge solids, which containmost of the viruses, begin to settle o

22、ut immediately aftermixing stops.9.1.2 Place stir bar into a 250-mL beaker.9.1.3 Pour the 100-mL of measured sludge from the cylin-der into the 250-mL beaker. If necessary, pour sludge severaltimes from beaker to cylinder and back to remove all sludgesolids to beaker. Take care to avoid formation of

23、 aerosols.9.1.4 Place beaker on magnetic stirrer, and stir at speedsufficient to develop vortex.9.1.5 Add 1 mL of AlCl3solution to sludge. Final concen-tration of AlCl3in sludge is approximately 0.0005 M.9.1.6 Place combination-type pH electrode into sludge andadjust pH of sludge to 3.5 6 0.1 with H

24、Cl (1 + 1). If pH fallsbelow 3.5, readjust with NaOH solution (4 g/100 mL). Ifsludge adheres to electrodes, clean electrodes by moving themup and down gently in mixing sludge. pH meter must bestandardized at pH 4.9.1.7 Continue mixing for 30 min. Check pH of the sludgeat frequent intervals. If the p

25、H drifts up, readjust to 3.5 6 0.1with HCl (1 + 9). If the pH drifts down, readjust with NaOHsolution (4 g/100 mL).9.1.8 Turn stirrer off and remove pH electrode from sludge.9.1.9 Remove cap from a screw-capped centrifuge bottleand pour conditioned sludge into centrifuge bottle. To preventtransfer o

26、f stir bar into centrifuge bottle when decantingsludge, hold another stir bar or magnet against bottom ofbeaker. Remove sludge that adheres to stir bar in the beaker bymanipulation with a stirring rod. If necessary, pour sludgeseveral times from centrifuge bottle to beaker and back toremove all slud

27、ge solids to bottle. Take care to avoid formationof aerosols.9.1.10 Replace and tighten cap on centrifuge bottle.9.1.11 Centrifuge conditioned sludge at 2 500 3 g for 15min at 4C. Discard supernatant.9.2 Elution of Viruses from Sludge Solids:9.2.1 Add stir bar to the centrifuge bottle that containss

28、edimented, conditioned sludge.9.2.2 Add 100 mL of buffered beef extract solution to thesedimented, conditioned sludge. The volume of buffered beefextract solution used to elute viruses from the conditionedsludge is equal to the original volume of the sample volume(see 9.1).9.2.3 Replace and tighten

29、cap on centrifuge bottle.9.2.4 Place centrifuge bottle on magnetic stirrer and stir atspeed sufficient to develop vortex. To minimize foaming(which may inactivate viruses), do not mix faster than neces-sary to develop vortex. Care must be taken to prevent bottlefrom toppling. Stabilize bottle as nec

30、essary.9.2.5 Continue mixing for 30 min.9.2.6 Turn stirrer off and remove stir bar from centrifugebottle.9.2.7 Replace and tighten cap on centrifuge bottle andcentrifuge conditioned sludge-eluate mixture at 10 000 3 g for30 min at 4C.9.2.8 Remove cap from centrifuge bottle.

32、iv-ing flask. Take care not to break off tip of syringe and tominimize pressure on receiving flask, because such pressuremay splinter or topple the flask. If filter stack begins to clogbadly, empty loaded syringe into beaker containing unfiltered6Extract available from Grand Island Biological Corp.,

34、th air, and inject air into filter stack toforce residual eluate from filters. Continue filtration procedurewith another filter holder and filter stack. Discard contaminatedfilter holders and filter stacks. Repeat 9.2.9 through 9.2.12 asoften as necessary to filter entire volume of eluate. Disas-sem

35、ble each filter holder and examine bottom filters to becertain they have not ruptured. If a bottom filter has ruptured,repeat 9.2.10 through 9.2.12 with new filter holders and filterstacks.9.2.13 Refrigerate eluate immediately at 4C, and maintainat that temperature until it is assayed for viruses (s

36、ee 9.3). Thenumber of cell cultures necessary for the viral assay may bereduced by concentrating the viruses in the beef extract by theorganic flocculation procedure. Some loss of virus may occurwith this procedure. If viruses in eluates are to be concentrated,proceed immediately to 9.4. If further

37、concentration is notrequired and if assay for viruses cannot be undertaken within 8h, distribute eluate into sterile sample bottles, cap tightly, andstore immediately at 70C.9.3 Viral Assay:9.3.1 At time of viral assay, rapidly thaw the frozen con-centrate at 37C and proceed with usual viral assay.

38、At least10 % of the isolates should be confirmed by second passage.9.4 Procedure for Concentrating Viruses from Sludge Elu-ates (Organic Flocculation Concentration)It is preferable toassay eluted viruses in the beef extract eluate without concen-trating them because some loss of viruses may occur in

39、concentration. However, the numbers of cell cultures neededfor assays may be reduced by concentrating the viruses in theeluate. Significant further loss of viruses may occur with thecurrently available beef extract which may not produce suffi-cient floc to adsorb all of the suspended virions.9.4.1 P

40、our eluate from 9.2.13 into a graduated cylinder andrecord the volume.9.4.2 Pour eluate into 600-mL beaker.9.4.3 For every 3 mL of beef extract eluate, add 7 mL ofsterile water to the 600-mL beaker. The concentration of beefextract is now 3 %. This dilution is necessary because 10 %beef extract ofte

41、n does not process well by the organicflocculation concentration procedure.9.4.4 Pour the diluted, filtered beef extract into a graduatedcylinder and record the total volume.9.4.5 Decant diluted filtered beef extract into 600-mL bea-ker and add a stir bar.9.4.6 Place beaker on magnetic stirrer and s

42、tir at a speedsufficient to develop vortex. To minimize foaming (which mayinactivate viruses), do not mix faster than necessary to developvortex.9.4.7 Insert combination-type pH electrode into diluted,filtered beef extract and add HCl (1 + 9) slowly until pH ofbeef extract reaches 3.56 0.1. A floccu

43、late or precipitate willform. If pH drops below 3.4, add NaOH solution (4 g/100 mL)until pH is 3.56 0.1. Avoid reducing pH below 3.4 becausesome inactivation of viruses may occur. Continue to stir for 30min.9.4.8 Turn stirrer off, remove electrode from beaker, anddistribute contents of beaker evenly

44、 among centrifuge bottles.To prevent transfer of stir bar into a centrifuge bottle, holdanother stir bar or magnet against bottom of beaker whendecanting contents.9.4.9 Replace and tighten caps on centrifuge bottles andcentrifuge the flocculated beef extract suspension at 2 500 3 gfor 15 min at 4C.

45、Pour off and discard supernatants.9.4.10 Place a small stir bar into each centrifuge bottle thatcontains flocculate and replace covers loosely.9.4.11 Measure a volume of Na2HPO47H2O solution equalto120 of the volume recorded in 9.4.4. Divide this volumeequally among the flocculates in the centrifuge

46、 bottles.9.4.12 Replace and tighten-down caps on centrifuge bottles,and place each on a magnetic stirrer. Stir flocculates slowlyuntil dissolved completely. Support bottles as necessary toprevent toppling. Avoid foaming which may inactivate oraerosolize viruses. Flocculates may be partially dissipat

47、ed withspatula before or during stirring procedure.9.4.13 Remove caps from centrifuge bottles and combinethe dissolved flocculates in a small beaker. To prevent transferof stir bars into beaker, hold another stir bar or magnet againstthe bottom of centrifuge bottle when decanting dissolvedflocculate

48、s.9.4.14 Measure pH of dissolve flocculate. If pH is above orbelow 7.0 to 7.5, adjust to within this range with either HCl(1 + 9) or NaOH solution (4 g/100 mL).9.4.15 Refrigerate final concentrate immediately at 4C, andmaintain at that temperature until assay for viruses is under-taken. If assay for

49、 viruses cannot be undertaken within 8 h,transfer dissolved precipitates to sterile sample bottles, captightly, and store immediately at 70C.9.4.16 At the time of viral assay, rapidly thaw the frozenconcentrate at 37C and proceed with usual viral assay.At least10 % of the isolates should be confirmed by second passage.10. Precision and Bias10.1 Eight independent laboratories participated in theevaluation of this recovery procedure for viruses in sludges.Five standardized sludges were utilized in the study: (1)Anaerobic, high rate, digested (mesophil
