Directions
Soyabean casein digest agar 0.1% Polysorbate 80 is a ready to use solid media in glass bottle. The medium is pre-sterilized, hence it does not need sterilization. Medium in the bottle can be melted either by using a pre-heated water bath or any other method. Slightly loosen the cap before melting. When complete melting of medium is observed dispense the medium in tubes as butts /slants or in plates as desired and allow to solidify. If on plate, either streak, inoculate or surface spread the test inoculum (50-100 CFU) aseptically.
Principle And Interpretation
Soyabean casein digest agar with Polysorbate 80 is used as sterility testing medium for the detection and enumeration of microorganisms present on surfaces of sanitary importances (1,2). This medium is also used in microbial limit test and antimicrobial preservative effective test.
Tryptone and Soya peptone provide nitrogenous compounds and other nutrients essential for microbial replication. Polysorbate 80 (Tween 80) are neutralizers reported to inactivate residual disinfectants from where the sample is collected (3).
Collection of samples from areas before and after the treatment with disinfectant evaluates cleaning procedures in environmental sanitation. The presence and number of microorganisms is determined by the appearance of colonies on the agar surface (4). After counting the colonies, carry out biochemical testing for identification.
Type of specimen
Swabs of containers, Equipment surfaces, Water miscible cosmetics etc.
Specimen Collection and Handling
For swabs of containers, equipment surfaces, water miscible cosmetics samples follow appropriate techniques for handling specimens as per established guidelines (4).
After use, contaminated materials must be sterilized by autoclaving before discarding.
Warning and Precautions
Read the label before opening the container. Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. Follow good microbiological lab practices while handling specimens and culture. Standard precautions as per established guidelines should be followed while handling specimens. Safety guidelines may be referred in individual safety data sheets.
Limitations:
- Biochemical characterization is necessary to be performed on colonies from pure cultures for further identification.
- This medium is general purpose medium and may not support the growth of fastidious organisms.
Performance and Evaluation
Performance of the medium is expected when used as per the direction on the label within the expiry period when stored at recommended temperature.
Quality Control
