10、ISO 16649-2:2001(E)iii Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) 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

11、a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to 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 Commissi

12、on (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an I

13、nternational Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 16649 may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights

14、. International Standard ISO 16649-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Food products, Subcommittee SC 9, Microbiology. ISO 16649 consists of the following parts, under the general title Microbiology of food and animal feeding stuffs Horizontal method for the enumeration of -glucuronidas

15、e-positive Escherichia coli: Part 1: Colony-count technique at 44 C using membranes and 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl -D-glucuronide Part 2: Colony-count technique at 44 C using 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl -D-glucuronide Part 3: Most probable number techniqueISO 16649-2:2001(E) iv Introduction Because o

16、f the large variety of food and feed products, this horizontal method may not be appropriate in every detail for certain products. In this case, different methods which are specific to these products may be used if absolutely necessary for justified technical reasons. Nevertheless, every attempt sho

17、uld be made to apply this horizontal method as far as possible. When this part of ISO 16649 is next reviewed, account will be taken of all information then available regarding the extent to which this horizontal method has been followed and the reasons for deviations from this method in the case of

18、particular products. The harmonization of test methods cannot be immediate and, for certain groups of products, International 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 t

19、o comply with this part of ISO 16649 so that eventually the only remaining departures from this horizontal method will be those necessary for well-established technical reasons. This International Standard describes two horizontal methods (ISO 16649-1 and ISO 16649-2) for the enumeration of -glucuro

20、nidase-positive Escherichia coli. The user may choose either ISO 16649-1 or ISO 16649-2. Either part is for general application. However, ISO 16649-1 should be used for foodstuffs which may contain severely stressed cells.INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 16649-2:2001(E)1 Microbiology of food and animal fe

21、eding stuffs Horizontal method for the enumeration of -glucuronidase-positive Escherichia coli Part 2: Colony-count technique at 44 C using 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl -D-glucuronide 1 Scope This part of ISO 16649 specifies a horizontal method for the enumeration of -glucuronidase-positive Escherichi

22、a coli in products intended for human consumption or for the feeding of animals. It uses a colony-count technique at 44 C on a solid medium containing a chromogenic ingredient for detection of the enzyme -glucuronidase. WARNING Strains of Escherichia coli which do not grow at 44 C and, in particular

23、, those that are -glucuronidase negative, such as Escherichia coli O157, will not be detected. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of ISO 16649.

29、e specified quantity of the test sample or the initial suspension. Under the same conditions, using decimal dilutions of the test sample or of the initial suspension, two plates per dilution are inoculated. The dishes are incubated for 18 h to 24 h at 44 C 1 C then examined to detect the presence of

30、 colonies which, from their characteristics, are considered to be -glucuronidase-positive Escherichia coli. 4.2 The number of colony-forming units (CFU) of -glucuronidase-positive Escherichia coli per gram or per millilitre of sample is calculated (see clause 10). 5 Diluent and culture media For cur

31、rent laboratory practice, see ISO 7218. 5.1 Diluent See ISO 6887-1 or the specific International Standard dealing with the product to be examined. 5.2 Culture medium: Tryptone-bile-glucuronic medium (TBX) 5.2.1 Composition Enzymatic digest of casein 20,0 g Bile salts No. 3 1,5 g 5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-i

Its minimum measuring threshold shall be 0,01 pH unit. The pH-m

37、eter shall be equipped with either manual or automatic temperature equalization. 7 Sampling It is important that the laboratory receive a sample which is truly representative and has not been damaged or changed during transport or storage. Sampling is not part of the method specified in this part of

38、 ISO 16649. If there is no specific International Standard, it is recommended that the parties concerned come to an agreement on this subject. 8 Preparation of test sample Prepare the test sample in accordance with the specific International Standard appropriate to the product concerned. If there is

39、 no specific International Standard available, it is recommended that the parties concerned come to an agreement on this subject. 9 Procedure 9.1 Test portion, initial suspension and dilutions See ISO 6887-1 and any specific International Standard appropriate to the product. 9.2 Inoculation and incu

40、bation 9.2.1 Using a sterile pipette or a micropipette (6.5), transfer to a sterile Petri dish (6.6) 1 ml of the test sample (if liquid), or 1 ml of the initial dilution (10 1 ) in the case of other products. Inoculate two plates per dilution. Repeat the procedure with the further decimal dilutions,

41、 if necessary, using a new sterile pipette for each dilution.ISO 16649-2:2001(E) 4 9.2.2 Pour into each Petri dish approximately 15 ml of the TBX medium (5.2), previously cooled at 44Ct o4 7 C in the water bath (6.3). Carefully mix the inoculum with the medium and allow the mixture to solidify, with

42、 the Petri dishes standing on a cool horizontal surface. The time which elapses between the distribution of the inoculum in a dish and pouring of the medium shall not exceed 15 min. 9.2.3 Invert the inoculated dishes (9.2.2) so that the bottom is uppermost and place them in an incubator (6.2) se ta

43、t44C for 18 h to 24 h. The total incubation time shall not be longer than 24 h. WARNING If the presence of stressed cells is suspected, incubate for an initial period of 4 h at 37 C, and then raise the incubation temperature to 44 C for 18 h to 24 h. The incubation temperature shall not exceed 45 C.

44、 9.3 Counting the colony-forming units After the specified period of incubation (9.2.3) count the typical CFU of -glucuronidase-positive Escherichia coli in each dish containing less than 150 typical CFU and less than 300 total (typical and non-typical) CFU. If they form part of the retained dishes,

45、 the dishes containing 0 typical CFU should be taken into consideration in the different calculation methods defined in clause 10. 10 Expression of results 10.1 General The calculation in 10.2 takes into account those cases most frequently encountered when conducting tests in accordance with good la

46、boratory practice. Some special, fairly improbable, cases can arise (e.g. very different CFU numbers between the two dishes from the same dilution, or very different proportions from that of the dilution factor between the dishes from two successive dilutions). It is then necessary that the counting

47、 results be examined, interpreted and possibly rejected by a competent microbiologist. 10.2 Calculation For a result to be valid, in general it is considered that it is necessary to count the CFU on at least one dish containing as a minimum 15 blue CFU. Calculate N, the number of CFU of -glucuronida

48、se-positive Escherichia coli present in the test sample per millilitre or per gram, as the weighted mean from two successive dilutions using the following equation: 12 (0 , 1) a N Vn n d (1) where a is the sum of the CFU counted on all the dishes retained from two successive dilutions, at least one

49、of which contains a minimum 15 blue CFU; n 1 is the number of dishes retained at the first dilution; V is the volume of inoculum, in millilitres, applied to each dish;ISO 16649-2:2001(E)5 n 2 is the number of dishes retained at the second dilution; d is the dilution factor corresponding to the first dilution retained d = 1 in the case (liquid products) where the directly inoculated test sample is retained. Round off the results to t
