Directions

Suspend 16.5 grams in 500 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 one vial of NO 20 Selective Supplement (FD290). Mix well and dispense as desired.

Principle And Interpretation

Escherichia coli is commonly found in the gut of humans and warm-blooded animals. In humans, it is found in several intestinal and extra-intestinal infections. Based on the virulence properties, different strains are divided into Enterotoxigenic (ETEC), Enteropathogenic (EPEC), Enteroinvasive (EIEC), Verotoxigenic (VTEC) and Enterohaemorragic (EHEC). Escherichia coli O157:H7 is an Enterohaemorragic strain implicated in foodborne illness. Due to severe nature of the clinical symptoms and the high contagiousness of the pathogens, the detection of EHEC is constantly gaining more and more clinical relevance (1,2). Modified Soyabean Bile Broth Base is formulated as recommended by FDA (3) for the enrichment and isolation of E.coli O157:H7. Modified Soyabean Bile Broth Base was subsequently accepted by ISO Committee as an enrichment medium for the detection and isolation of E.coli O157:H7 under the specification ISO/DIS 16654: 1999 (4).

Casitose and soya peptone provide carbonaceous, nitrogenous compounds, long chain amino acids and other essential growth nutrients. D-Glucose is the fermentable carbohydrate and energy source. Bile salts mixture inhibits gram-positive bacteria. Sodium chloride maintains osmotic equilibrium while phosphate buffers the medium well. Novobiocin renders the medium selectivity. Whenever low levels of E.coli O157:H7 are suspected, the food is enriched in Modified Soyabean Bile Broth and further plated on selective medium as Sorbitol MacConkey Agar (M298I) or Hemorrhagic coli (HC) Agar (M1158) for isolation and identification.

Blend 25 grams food sample to be tested in 224 ml Modified Soyabean Bile Broth and incubate with shaking (about 100 rpm) at 37°C for 18-24 hours. Prepare dilution of the enrichment culture with phosphate buffer and spread 0.1 ml of each dilution on HC Agar plates and incubate at 43°C for 24 hours.

Specimen Collection and Handling

ISO 16654:2001&/Amd 2:2023 (4)

  • Enrichment of the test portion homogenized in Modified Soyabean Bile Broth Base (M12861) with incubation at 41.5 ±1°C for 6 h and subsequently for a further 12 h to 18h
  • Isolation onto MacConkey Sorbitol Agar Base (M2981). Incubate at 37±1°C for 21±3h. Confirm the colonies by biochemical characterization.

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 :

  1. Further subculture must be carried out for confirmation.

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).
