Principle And Interpretation
SCDM w/0.5% Lecithin, 2% Polysorbate 80 and 1% Glycerol is used in RODAC (Replicate Organism Detection and Counting) plates (1) for the detection and enumeration of microorganisms present on surfaces of sanitary importances (2,3).
Tryptone and Soya peptone provide nitrogenous and carbonaceous compounds, long chain amino acids, vitamins and other nutrients essential for microbial replication. Lecithin to inactivate residual disinfectants from where the sample is collected (4). Lecithin neutralizes quaternary ammonium compounds. Polysorbate 80 neutralizes phenolic disinfectants, hexachlorophene, formalin and with lecithin ethanol (5). Glycerol helps in retention of moisture and serves as carbon source.
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 (6). After counting the colonies, carry out biochemical carry out biochemical testing for identification.
