17、opean Standard provides terms for different classifications of culture media used in microbiology (bacteriology and mycology). 2 Definitions 2.1 culture medium Formulation of substances, in liquid, semi-solid or in solid form, which contain natural and/or synthetic constituents intended to support t

18、he multiplication, or to preserve the viability, of micro-organisms. NOTE. When used in connection with compound words, this term is often shortened into medium (e.g. enrichment medium). 2.2 Culture media classified by composition 2.2.1 chemically defined culture medium Culture medium consisting of

19、chemically defined constituents (i.e. of known molecular structure and degree of purity) only. 2.2.2 chemically incompletely defined culture medium Culture medium consisting entirely or partly of natural raw materials, the chemical compositions of which are incompletely defined. 2.3 Culture media cl

20、assified by consistency 2.3.1 liquid culture medium Culture medium consisting of an aqueous solution of one or more constituents (e.g. peptone water, nutrient broth). NOTE 1. In some cases, solid particles are added to the liquid culture medium (e.g. Tarrozzi broth, Cooked Meat broth). NOTE 2. Liqui

21、d media in tubes, flasks or bottles are commonly called broth. 2.3.2 solid culture medium and semi-solid culture medium Liquid culture medium containing solidifying materials (e.g. agar-agar, gelatine, etc.) in different concentrations. NOTE. Due to the world-wide use of culture media solidified wit

22、h agar-agar, the shortened term agar is often used synonymously for solid culture media and therefore in connection with nouns, e.g. Endo Agar or Sabouraud agar etc. Solid culture media poured into Petri dishes are commonly called plates. Solid culture media poured into tubes that are kept in slante

23、d positions while solidifying the media are often called slants. 2.4 Culture media classified by intent of use 2.4.1 transport medium Culture medium designed to preserve and maintain the viability of micro-organisms for the time period between sample collection and laboratory processing of the sampl

24、e. NOTE. Transport media usually contain substances that do not permit multiplication of micro-organisms but ensure their preservation (e.g. Stuarts or Amies transport medium). 2.4.2 preservation medium Culture medium designed to preserve and maintain the viability of micro-organisms over an extende

25、d period, to protect them against the adverse influences which may occur during long-term storage and to allow recovery after this period. 2.4.3 resuscitation medium Culture medium enabling stressed and damaged micro-organisms to repair and recover their capacity for normal growth without necessaril

26、y promoting their multiplication. 2.4.4 enrichment medium Predominantly liquid culture medium which, due to its composition, provides particularly favourable conditions for multiplication of micro-organisms. 2.4.4.1 selective enrichment medium Enrichment medium which supports the multiplication of s

27、pecific micro-organisms while inhibiting other micro-organisms (e.g. selenite broth). 2.4.4.2 non-selective enrichment medium Enrichment medium which is not devised to selectively inhibit micro-organisms (e.g. nutrient broth). 2.4.5 isolation medium Solid or semi-solid culture medium which supports

28、growth and/or the formation of colonies of micro-organisms. 2.4.5.1 selective isolation medium Isolation medium which supports growth of specific micro-organisms, while inhibiting other micro-organisms (e.g. Leifson agar, MacConkey agar). 2.4.5.2 non-selective isolation medium Isolation medium which

29、 is not devised to selectively inhibit micro-organisms (e.g. nutrient agar). 2.4.6 differential medium Culture medium which permits the testing of one or more physiological/biochemical characteristics of the micro-organisms for their identification (e.g. Urea medium, Kligler agar). NOTE. Differentia

30、l media which can be used as isolation media are referred to as isolation/differential media (e.g. xylose lysine deoxycholate (XLD) agar). 2.4.7 Identification medium Culture medium designed to produce a specific identification reaction which does not require any further confirmatory test. NOTE. Ide

31、ntification media which can be used as isolation media are referred to as isolation/identification media. 2.4.8 Media with multiple intents of use Certain culture media may be assigned to several categories, e.g. Blood agar is a resuscitation medium according to 2.4.3, an isolation medium according

32、to 2.4.5 and a differential medium according to 2.4.6 used for detection of haemolysis.Page 4 EN 1659 : 1996 BSI 1997 2.5 CuIture media classified according to the form of product 2.5.1 dehydrated medium Culture medium in dry form which is not ready for immediate use (e.g. powders, granules, lyophil

33、ized products). NOTE. Most often, rehydration will make a partially completed medium. 2.5.2 partially completed medium Culture medium which still requires one or more additional working steps before its intended use (e.g. melting, pouring, portioning, supplementing). NOTE. In manufacturing terms, th

34、ese media are often called half- finished or semi-finished. 2.5.3 ready-to-use medium Culture medium which is supplied in containers in ready-to-use form (e.g. Petri dishes or tubes or other carriers).blankBSI 389 Chiswick High Road London W4 4AL | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
