18、normal laboratory practice. This part of ISO 11731 does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions. 1 Sc

19、ope This part of ISO 11731 describes a monitoring method for the isolation and enumeration of Legionella organisms in water intended for human use (e.g. hot and cold water, water used for washing), for human consumption and for treated bathing waters (e.g. swimming pools). It is especially suitable

20、for waters expected to contain low numbers of Legionella. As the growth of Legionella may be inhibited by overgrowth of other bacterial colonies on the membrane, the method is only suitable for waters containing low bacterial counts. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indi

21、spensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

23、ria normally capable of growth in no less than 2 days on buffered charcoal yeast extract agar containing L-cysteine and iron(III), and forming colonies, often white, purple to blue or lime green in colour NOTE Some species fluoresce under long wavelength UV light. The colonies have a ground-glass ap

24、pearance when viewed with a low power stereomicroscope. Growth does not occur in the absence of L-cysteine with the exception of L. oakridgensis and L. spiritensis. L. oakridgensis and L. spiritensis require L-cysteine and iron for primary isolation but can grow weakly in the absence of added L-cyst

25、eine thereafter. 1) To be published. (Revision of ISO 8199:1988) BS EN ISO 11731-2:20082 4 Safety The reagents used in this part of ISO 11731 should be subject to assessment in accordance with control substances hazardous to health. Legionella species can be handled safely by experienced microbiolog

26、ists on the open bench in a conventional microbiology laboratory conforming to containment level 2. Infection is caused by inhalation of the organism and it is advisable therefore to assess all techniques for their ability to produce aerosols. If in any doubt, carry out the work in a safety cabinet.

27、 5 Principle 5.1 General Bacteria, including Legionella organisms, in the water sample are concentrated by membrane filtration. After filtration, the filter is treated with acid buffer added directly into the funnel to reduce the growth of non- Legionella organisms. The filter is subsequently transf

28、erred onto a plate of agar medium selective for Legionella and incubated. Samples expected to contain sufficient numbers of Legionella need not be subjected to concentration prior to culture (9.1). 5.2 Enumeration After incubation, morphologically characteristic colonies which form on the selective

29、medium are regarded as presumptive Legionella. 5.3 Confirmation Presumptive colonies are confirmed as Legionella organisms by subculture to demonstrate their growth requirement for L-cysteine and iron. Further biochemical and serological tests are needed for species identification. Species identific

30、ation may not be considered necessary for routine monitoring but is indispensable in outbreak situations. NOTE L. pneumophila serogroup 1 is the causative agent of most legionellosis cases and is therefore considered the most “critical” type of Legionella to be found in the water system. Since incre

31、asing numbers of cases of legionellosis caused by other serogroups of L. pneumophila and other Legionella species are being described, even the presence of other Legionella species in water is considered a potential risk. 6 Culture media and reagents 6.1 General Use chemicals of analytical grade in

32、the preparation of media and reagents unless otherwise stated. Alternatively, use commercially available dehydrated media and reagents. Prepare the media according to the manufacturers instruction and add freshly prepared (or thaw the stored material at room temperature prior to use) selective agent

33、s or growth supplements at the concentrations recommended. Prepare media using glass distilled water or water of equivalent quality complying with ISO 3696:1987, Grade 3. Other grades of chemicals may be used providing they can be shown to produce the same results. BS EN ISO 11731-2:2008I SO 4002 Al
