Directions
Suspend 57.85 grams in 990 ml purified / distilled water. Heat if necessary to dissolve the medium completely. Sterilize by autoclaving at 15 lbs pressure (121°C) for 15 minutes. Cool to 45 - 50°C and aseptically add rehydrated contents of 1 vial of Fraser Enrichment Supplement (FD065) or one vial of Fraser Selective Supplement (FD125). Mix thoroughly and dispense as desired.
Principle And Interpretation
Fraser Secondary Enrichment Broth is a modification of United States Department of Agriculture-Food Safety Inspection Service (USDA-FSIS) UVM Secondary Enrichment Broth. It is based on the formulation of Fraser and Sperber (1) and found to be remarkably accurate in detecting Listeria species in food and environmental samples (2). Fraser Secondary Enrichment Broth is recommended by APHA (3). Fraser Secondary Enrichment Broth Base is formulated so as to provide optimum conditions for the growth of Listeria.
Proteose peptone, Tryptone, yeast extract, and HM peptone B make the media highly nutritive by providing essential nutrients including carbonaceous and nitrogenous substances. Phosphates maintain the buffering capacity of the medium. All Listeria species exhibit β-glucosidase activity which is evident by the blackening of the media. Listeria species hydrolyze esculin (substituted glucoside) to glucose and esculetin. The latter combines with ferric ions of ferric ammonium citrate, resulting in the formation of 6-7 dihydroxycoumarin, a black brown complex. Ferric ammonium citrate also enhances the growth of L. monocytogenes (4). The high salt tolerance (of sodium chloride) of Listeria is used as means to inhibit the growth of Enterococci. Lithium chloride is also used to inhibit Enterococci, which also possess the ability to hydrolyze esculin. Growth of accompanying bacteria is largely inhibited by the addition of Nalidixic acid and Acriflavin hydrochloride (FD).
Type of specimen
Food samples and Environmental samples
Specimen Collection and Handling:
For food samples follow appropriate techniques for handling specimens as per established guidelines (3). For environmental samples, follow appropriate techniques for sample collection and processing as per guidelines (5,6). 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 :
- Further biochemical and serological tests must be carried out for further identification.
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.

Storage and Shelf Life
Store between 10-30°C in a tightly closed container and the prepared medium at 2-8°C. Use before expiry date on the label. On opening, product should be properly stored dry, after tightly capping the bottle in order to prevent lump formation due to the hygroscopic nature of the product. Improper storage of the product may lead to lump formation. Store in dry ventilated area protected from extremes of temperature and sources of ignition. Seal the container tightly after use. Product performance is best if used within stated expiry period.
Disposal
User must ensure safe disposal by autoclaving and/or incineration of used or unusable preparations of this product. Follow established laboratory procedures in disposing of infectious materials and material that comes into contact with sample must be decontaminated and disposed of in accordance with current laboratory techniques (5,6).
