Directions

Suspend 26 grams in 1000 ml distilled water. Heat to boiling to dissolve the medium completely. Sterilize by autoclaving at 15 lbs pressure (121°C) for 15 minutes. Cool to 45-50°C. Aseptically add 6.25 ml of 10% sterile carbohydrate solution. Mix well and dispense in sterile tubes containing inverted Durham's tubes.

Principle and Interpretation

This medium is prepared by completely replacing animal based peptones with vegetable peptones that are free of BSE/TSE risks. CHO HiVeg Medium Base is the modification of CHO Medium Base. Identification of anaerobes is based on cellular morphology, colony characteristics on blood agar and biochemical tests (1). For the anaerobic microorganisms, proper collection and transport of suspected specimens is of pivotal importance. Exposure of the specimens to air should be minimized to the possible extent and they should be promptly cultured in the laboratory under proper atmospheric conditions.

Carbohydrate utilization patterns play a key role in identification of anaerobes. Although metabolism of anaerobes is less efficient, they require auxillary growth factors, which are available from HiVeg hydrolysate. Also high concentration of carbohydrate is required for their growth. Sodium thioglycollate helps in maintaining reduced atmosphere in the medium and the presence of small quantity of agar also aid in anaerobiosis. Sodium chloride maintains osmotic balance while bromo thymol blue is a pH indicator included in this medium.

Quality Control

Appearance of powder Yellow coloured, may have slightly greenish tinge, homogeneous, free flowing powder.

Colour and Clarity Light green coloured, clear to slightly opalescent solution without any precipitate.

Reaction Reaction of 2.6% w/v aqueous solution is pH 7.0 ± 0.2 at 25°C

Cultural Response Cultural characteristics observed after an incubation at 35-37°C for upto 7 days when incubated anaerobically.
