Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method describes the use of the MBEC Assay in evaluating the efficacy

24、of a disinfectant against a Pseudomonasaeruginosa biofilm.Amature biofilm is established on pegs under batch conditions with very low shear produced by gentle rotationof the device on an orbital shaker. At the end of 24 h of growth, the pegs containing the biofilm are rinsed to remove planktoniccell

25、s and the peg lid is placed in a receiver plate. The wells in the receiver plate are filled according to an experimental design thatcontains the appropriate sterility, growth, and neutralizer controls as well as the disinfectants. After a specified contact time, thepeg lid is placed in a receiver pl

26、ate containing neutralizer, and the entire device is placed in a sonicator to remove the biofilm anddisaggregate the clumps. Samples from each well are then diluted, plated and the viable cells enumerated. The log10reduction inviable cells is calculated by subtracting the mean log10density for the t

27、reated biofilm from the mean log10density determined forthe untreated controls.5. Significance and Use5.1 Vegetative biofilm bacteria are phenotypically different from suspended planktonic cells of the same genotype. Biofilmgrowth reactors are engineered to produce biofilms with specific characteris

28、tics. Altering either the engineered system or operatingconditions will modify those characteristics. The goal in biofilm research and efficacy testing is to choose the growth reactor thatgenerates the most relevant biofilm for the particular study.5.2 The purpose of this test method is to direct a

29、user in how to grow, treat, sample and analyze a Pseudomonas aeruginosabiofilm using the MBEC Assay. Microscopically, the biofilm is sheet-like with few architectural details as seen in Harrison et al(5(6). The MBEC Assay was originally designed as a rapid and reproducible assay for evaluating biofi

30、lm susceptibility toantibiotics (2). The engineering design allows for the simultaneous evaluation of multiple test conditions, making it an efficientmethod for screening multiple disinfectants or multiple concentrations of the same disinfectant. Additional efficiency is added byincluding the neutra

31、lizer controls within the assay device. The small well volume is advantageous for testing expensivedisinfectants, or when only small volumes of the disinfectant are available.6.

46、ransfer 25 mL of the inoculum prepared in 8.6 into a sterile reagent reservoir.9.2.3 Using a micropipette, add 150 L of the inoculum to each well (exclude columns 9 to 11 and A12, B12, and C12) of the96-well tissue culture plate packaged with the MBEC device.NOTE 2Wells A12, B12, and C12 serve as st

47、erility controls and must NOT be filled with inoculum. Columns 9 to 11 are spare, empty wells.9.2.4 Place the peg lid onto the microtiter plate. Ensure that the orientation of the plate matches the orientation of the lid (thatis, peg A1 must be inserted into well A1 of the microtiter plate, otherwis

48、e the device will not fit together correctly, see Fig. 1).Label the device appropriately.NOTE 3Volume of inoculum used in this step has been calibrated such that the biofilm covers a surface area that is entirely immersed by the volumeof antimicrobial used in the challenge plate setup (Section 9.4).

49、 Using a larger volume of inoculum might lead to biofilm formation high on the peg thatphysically escapes exposure during the challenge step.9.2.5 Place the device on the orbital shaker in a humidified incubator (to prevent evaporation). Set shaker to 110 6 10 rpm toprevent spillover.
