24、 14461-2:2005viIntroduction Every microbiological method consists of several steps that are followed in a specific sequence (sub-sampling, diluting, plating and counting). The final result has a margin of uncertainty that is determined by the variability of all the steps involved. In order to obtain

25、 results with a margin of uncertainty not much larger than what can be expected from the correct application of the method, it is necessary to follow the rules of Good Laboratory Practice (GLP). The three most important factors in obtaining a correct plate count are the homogeneity of the sample mat

26、erial, the exactness with which the dilutions are performed, and the technique of inoculation and/or counting of the plates. By homogenizing a sample material very well, making multiple dilution series, and inoculating several plates from the same dilution, it is possible to assess how well a labora

27、tory can perform the colony-count technique, taking into account the expected variability of the method. Too large a variability indicates that at least one of the steps in the performance of the method is out of control. The identification of those steps is carried out by comparison of the replicat

28、e inoculations, the different dilution levels and the dilution series. When the steps with excessive variability have been identified, necessary measures should be taken to bring these steps under control.

29、t 2: Determination of the reliability of colony counts of parallel plates and subsequent dilution steps 1 Scope This part of ISO 14461IDF 169 describes a routine procedure for the evaluation of results of the enumeration of microorganisms using colony-count methods with subsequent 10-fold dilution s

30、teps and one plate or two parallel plates within each dilution step. This routine procedure is applied regularly in each laboratory performing colony counts. It provides criteria for the acceptability of differences between the results from parallel plates and subsequent dilution steps, as follows.

31、a) The results (colony counts) obtained from parallel plates are compared with tabulated limits for given colony counts. If these limits are exceeded, a technical problem when performing the parallel determinations may be indicated. b) The results (sums of colony counts) of two parallel plates of tw

32、o subsequent 10-fold dilution steps are compared with tabulated limits for given sums of colony counts. If these limits are exceeded, a technical problem when performing the dilutions may be indicated. c) If the limits mentioned above are exceeded in more cases than expected, this indicates that the

33、 test procedure lacks reliability. NOTE The formulae for calculating the values in Table 1 and 2 are given and explained in Clause 7. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies

34、. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. ISO 14461-1IDF 169-1, Milk and milk products Quality control in microbiological laboratories Part 1: Analyst performance assessment for colony counts3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of

35、 this document, the following terms and definitions apply 3.1colony count number of microorganisms found, as determined by the method specified in ISO 14461-1|IDF 169-1 NOTE The number of microorganisms is expressed per gram or per millilitre of test sample. BS ISO 14461-2:200524 Principle The count

36、ing results obtained are compared with tabulated limits for given colony counts. Decisions are based on the way the limits are exceeded. The tabled values are calculated and explained. 5 Procedure 5.1 General The procedure shall be applied routinely in laboratories carrying out colony counts. A stan

37、dardized method for performing colony counts must be applied in any case. If the applied method is not in accordance with an International Standard or another accepted standard, a detailed description of the method shall be available and followed precisely. In the case that a method is followed with

38、 only one plate per dilution step, the procedure described in 5.2 shall be carried out with a certain minimum frequency (e.g. once per hundred sample units tested). 5.2 Counting results of two parallel plates Compare the results (colony counts) of two parallel plates with the limits tabulated in Tab

39、le 1. Compare the upper and lower colony counts of an observed pair of results with the corresponding colony counts given in Table 1. Use the upper colony count given in Table 1 as basis for the comparison. Then compare the lower colony count given in Table 1 with the observed lower count. A lower o

40、bserved count below the lower colony count of Table 1 indicates that the difference between the colony counts obtained with the two parallel plates is unacceptably high. (See the results of the first dilution step in Examples 1 and 2 in Clause 7.) A lower observed count, which is at least equal to t

41、he lower colony count, indicates that the difference is acceptable. (See the results of the second dilution step in Examples 1 and 2 in Clause 7.) 5.3 Sum of counting results of subsequent dilution steps 5.3.1 Use for the following test the colony counts from the two sets of parallel plates that pas

42、sed the test in 5.2. Compare the sums of colony counts from parallel plates over two 10-fold dilution steps with the tabulated limits in Table 2. For an observed sum with dilution step 10x, compare the sum obtained with dilution step 10(x+1)with the tabulated lower limit for the sum. Observed sums f

43、or the dilution step 10(x+1)within the ranges given in Table 2 are acceptable. Observed sums outside these limits indicate that the ratio of the colony counts obtained over two 10-fold dilution steps deviates significantly from the expected ratio. 5.3.2 Use for the following test the colony counts f

44、rom the parallel plates that did not pass the test in 5.2 or those colony counts from one plate per dilution step. Compare the colony counts from plates over two subsequent 10-fold dilution steps with the limits tabulated in Table 2. For an observed colony count with dilution step 10x, compare the c

45、olony count obtained with dilution step 10(x+1)with the tabulated lower limit for the count. Observed colony counts for dilution step 10(x+1)within the ranges given in Table 2 are acceptable. Observed colony counts outside these limits indicate that the ratio of the colony counts obtained over two 1

46、0-fold dilution steps deviates significantly from the expected ratio. (Two comparisons of results are given in Examples 1 and 2 in Clause 7). BS ISO 14461-2:20053See Figure 1 for a flowchart of the procedure. NOTE A minus sign () indicates an acceptable result within limits. A plus sign (+) indicate

47、s a result that is out of limits, and is an indication of technical problems.
