20、r the detection of irradiation treatment of herbs and spices, using the combined direct epifluorescent filter technique (DEFT) and aerobic plate count (APC). The DEFT/APC technique is not radiation specific, therefore, it is recommended to confirm positive results using a standardised method (e.g. E

21、N 1788, prEN 13751) to specifically prove an irradiation treatment of the suspected food. The method has been successfully tested in interlaboratory tests with herbs and spices I to 5. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other pub

22、lications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this European Standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revi

23、sion. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including amendments). IS0 4833, Microbiology - General guidance for the enumeration of microorganisms - Colony count technique at 30 OC. IS0 721 8, Microbiology of food and animal feeding stuffs - General rules

24、for microbiological examinations. 3 Principle The method is based on the comparison of the APC with the count obtained using DEFT. The APC gives the number of viable microorganisms in the sample after a possible irradiation and the DEFT count indicates the total number of microorganisms, including n

25、on-viable cells, present in the sample. The difference between the DEFT count and the APC count in spices treated with doses of 5 kGy to 10 kGy is generally about or above 3 to 4 log units. Similar differences between DEFT and APC counts can be induced by other treatments of the foods leading to dea

26、th of microorganisms, e. g. heat, thus positive results shall be confirmed. A known volume of sample is filtered through a membrane filter at reduced pressure in order to concentrate the microorganisms on the filter. The microorganisms are stained with a fluorochrome, acridine orange (AO), resulting

27、 in an orange and orange-yellow fluorescence under illumination with blue light at 450 nm to 490 nm. These microorganisms are counted using an epifluorescence microscope to give the DEFT count. However, microorganisms which were non-viable before irradiation show green fluorescence and are not count

28、ed. In parallel, the APC is determined from a second portion of the same test sample 6 to IO. 4 Reagents 4.1 General During the analysis use only reagents of recognized analytical grade.
