Additional information This horizontal method may not be appropriate in all food situations, and other meth

5、ods are more productive with some types of food. In applying this standard it is important to avoid excessive exposure to changes in pH during the preparation of dilutions: in the UK, for lower pH food material 0.1% peptone water without pH adjustment is preferred instead of buffered peptone water a

In the UK, microaerobic incubation conditions (510 % oxygen and 5 % carbon dioxide) are commonly applied or the use of a candle jar may be considered. However, if aerobic incubation is the only option then ei

13、dization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally 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

14、 be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Draft Internationa

15、l 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. International Standard ISO15214 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Agricultural

16、 food products, Subcommittee SC 9, Microbiology. Annex A of this International Standard is for information only.iv blankBSISO15214:1998 BSI 05-1999 1 Introduction Because of the large variety of food and feed products, this horizontal method may not be appropriate in every detail for certain product

17、s. In this case, different methods which are specific to these products may be used if absolutely necessary for justified technical reasons. Nevertheless, every attempt should be made to apply this horizontal method as far as possible. When this International Standard is next reviewed, account will

18、be taken of all information then available regarding to extent to which this horizontal method has been followed and the reasons for deviations from this method in the case of particular products. The harmonization of test methods cannot be immediate, and for certain groups of products International

19、 Standards and/or national standards may already exist that do not comply with this horizontal method. It is hoped that when such standards are reviewed they will be changed to comply with this International Standard so that eventually the only remaining departures from this horizontal method will b

20、e those necessary for well-established technical reasons. 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a horizontal method for the enumeration of viable mesophilic lactic acid bacteria by counting the colonies growing in a solid medium after incubation at 30 C for 3 days. NOTEIn some food products,

21、 there exist psychotrophic or thermophilic lactic acid bacteria necessitating culture temperatures different from 30 C. Moreover, not all lactic acid bacteria grow on MRS agar at pH 5,7 and some grow only weakly. Subject to the limitations discussed in the introduction and in the note above, this In

22、ternational Standard is applicable to products intended for human consumption or animal foodstuffs. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. At the time of the publication, the editi

23、ons indicated were valid. All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreement based on the International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the standards inidicated below. Members of IEC and ISO maintain registers of currently v

30、 at pH 5,7 (see reference 4) NOTEThe use of commercially available ready-to-use media is acceptable. However, attention is drawn to the fact that variations in composition and pH may occur between products from different manufacturers and could, therefore give results different from the ones obtaine

If the medium is to be used immediately, cool it before use to appoximately 47 C in the water bath (6.5), or by any other technique giving equivalent results (see ISO7218). If not, in order to avoid any

33、delay when pouring the medium before beginning the microbiological examination, completely melt the medium, in a boiling water bath (6.6), then cool it to approximately 47 C in the water bath (6.5). 5.3.2.2 If there is a risk of extensive yeast contamination (e.g. in dried sausage), add sorbic acid

34、to the MRS medium as follows. Dissolve 1,4 g of sorbic acid in about 10 ml of a 1 mol/l solution of sodium hydroxide. Sterilize by filtration. Add this solution to 1 000 ml of sterilized MRS agar, previously cooled to approximately 47 C. The final pH of the medium shall be 5,7 0,1 at 25 C. 3) See no

If there is no specific International Standard dealing with sampling of the product concerned

40、, it is recommended that the parties concerned come to an agreement on this subject. It is important that the laboratory receive a sample which is truly representative and has not been damaged or changed during transport or storage (see ISO7218). 8 Preparation of test sample Prepare the test sample

41、in accordance with the specific International Standard appropriate to the product concerned. If there is no specific International Standard, it is recommended that the parties concerned come to an agreement on this subject. 9 Procedure 9.1 Test portion, initial suspension and dilutions Prepare the i

42、nitial suspension and dilutions in accordance with ISO6887-1. 9.2 Inoculation and incubation NOTE 1Surface plating in combination with incubation under anaerobic or microaerobic conditions can be applied instead of the pour-plating procedure described. Candle jars may be used to obtain appropriate c

43、onditions. NOTE 2It is also possible to use a double-layer MRS medium. 9.2.1 Take two sterile Petri dishes (6.3). Using a sterile pipette (6.4), transfer to each dish 1 ml of the test sample if the product is liquid, or 1 ml of the initial suspension in the case of other products. Take two other ste

44、rile Petri dishes. Using a fresh sterile pipette, transfer to each dish 1 ml of the first decimal dilution of the test sample if the product is liquid, or 1 ml of the first decimal dilution of the initial suspension in the case of other products. Repeat the procedure described with the further dilut

45、ions, using a fresh sterile pipette for each decimal dilution. NOTEIf high numbers of lactic acid bacteria are expected, it is possible to inoculate only those dilutions necessary to be able to enumerate according to the general case (see 10.1). 9.2.2 Pour into each Petri dish approximately 15 ml of

46、 the MRS medium (5.3) which has been prepared then cooled to approximately 47 C in the water bath (6.5). Carefully mix the inoculum with the medium and allow the mixture to solidify. 9.2.3 Invert the prepared dishes and incubate them in the incubator (6.2) set at 30 C for 72 h 3 h. Avoid desiccation

47、 of the agar during incubation so that the medium does not become too inhibitory. 9.3 Counting of colonies After the specified period of time (see 9.2.3), count the colonies in each dish (see notes 1 and 2). Retain dishes containing fewer than 300 colonies at two successive dilutions, and more than

48、15 colonies on at least one dish.BSISO15214:1998 4 BSI 05-1999 NOTE 1Some Leuconostoc spp. may form large slimy colonies which may hinder the development of other colonies, thus causing an underestimation of the number of lactic acid bacteria. NOTE 2Due to the possible development of microorganisms

49、other than lactic acid bacteria on MRS medium, as described in 9.2, it may be necessary in some cases and for some products to confirm the colonies obtained in 9.2 by simple techniques (such as Gram staining, or the test for catalase). Such a procedure, if conducted, should be mentioned in the test report. 10 Expression of results 10.1 General case Calculate the number N of mesophilic lactic acid bacteria present in the test sample, as the weighted mean from two successive dilutions, using the equation: where Roun
