9、pared under the direction of the Disinfectants Standards Committee. It supersedes BS 808:1938, which is withdrawn. The Chick-Martin test was devised at the Lister Institute and first described in 1908 (J Hygiene, 1908, VIII, 655). It was designed primarily to estimate the value of disinfectants to b
10、e used outside the body. An essential feature of the test is the inclusion of organic matter. As disinfectants have frequently to act in the presence of large amounts of organic matter, this feature of the test is of considerable practical importance. However it is alleged that the particular form o
11、f organic matter (dried faeces) used in the test was variable in character and unpleasant to handle. When BSI was asked to prepare a British Standard based on the Chick-Martin test it constituted a committee to examine the possibility of substituting yeast for faeces in the test. The committee found
12、 that yeast was free from the objections alleged against faeces; it also found that further modifications of the original technique produced more consistent results. This work was published as BS 808:1938. This revision of the test introduces the following main changes: a) replacement of the broth b
13、y Rideal-Walker broth, single-strength; b) replacement of the organism by Salmonella typhi (NCTC 786); c) deletion of the appendix giving the method for determination of the crystallizing point of the phenol, on the grounds that specification of analytical reagent grade is sufficient; d) modificatio
14、ns to the procedure for obtaining the yeast suspension, in order to obtain a more consistent material. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standa
15、rd does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii, pages 1 to 6, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporat
16、ed. This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover.

17、e original Chick-Martin test for assessing the efficacy of disinfectants used externally to the human body. The modification is to substitute yeast for dried faeces, the essential feature of the test being the inclusion of organic matter. NOTEThe titles of the publications referred to in this Britis
18、h Standard are listed on the inside back cover. 2 Definitions For the.purposes of this British Standard the following definition applies. phenol coefficient the quotient of the mean of the highest concentration of phenol permitting growth in a challenge medium and the lowest concentration not permit
19、ting such growth to the corresponding mean concentration of the disinfectant under test 3 Principle A challenge medium containing Salmonella typhi and organic matter (yeast) is added to a range of dilutions of the disinfectant under test and of phenol and the mixtures incubated for 48 h at 37 C. The
20、 mixtures are then examined for growth of the organism, and the phenol coefficient (see clause 2) calculated. 4 Sterilization Wherever sterile reagents, media, materials or apparatus are referred to, or an instruction to sterilize them appears, the sterility shall be that achieved either by being ke
21、pt at: a) 170 C to 175 C for not less than 1 h in an oven (dry sterilization); or b) 121 1 C for not less than 15 min in an autoclave (wet sterilization). Cotton wool shall not, however, be subjected to more than 2 h dry sterilization. Manipulation of sterile material and of bacterial cultures shall
22、 be carried out aseptically. 5 Reagents and materials 5.1 General All reagents shall be of recognized biological or analytical grade, and distilled water or water otherwise produced shall comply with BS 3978. All solutions and media shall be freshly prepared. 5.2 Rideal-Walker broth Dissolve 25 g of
23、 Oxoid nutrient broth No. 21) (Code CM 67) in each litre of distilled water. Adjust the pH value, if necessary, to a value that will result in a pH value between 7.3 and 7.5 at 25 C after the broth is sterilized (normally adjustment before sterilization to pH 7.6 is suitable). Dispense the broth in
24、5 mL and in 10 mL quantities into the test tubes (6.2.6). Plug or cap the tubes and sterilize as described in clause 4. Do not sterilize the medium in bulk and do not sterilize the medium a second time. 5.3 Test organism Salmonella typhi (NCTC 786)1). This organism can be obtained from the National
25、Collection of Type Cultures (NCTC), subject to its “Conditions of Supply: Hazardous Pathogens” (available from NCTC), i.e. requests for supply must be signed or countersigned by a person whose signature is on file in the NCTC. NOTESalmonella typhi has been categorized by the Advisory Committee on Da
26、ngerous Pathogens as a hazard group 3 pathogen and work with viable material should be conducted according to their recommendations for containment level 3. However in the case of Salmonella typhi (NCTC 786), following a hazard/risk assessment initiated by the British Association for Chemical Specia
27、lities (BACS), and accepted by the Health and Safety Executive, work with Salmonella typhi (NCTC 786) need not be confined to a microbiological safety cabinet provided that the BACS Code of Practice2) is followed. A fresh culture shall be obtained every 3 months and a fresh initial culture (7.1) pre
28、pared. 5.4 Phenol dilutions 5.4.1 Stock solution. Prepare a 50 g/L solution of phenol in sterile water (see clause 4) dissolving 5.0 g of phenol in sterile water and diluting to the mark in a 100 mL one-mark volumetric flask (6.2.10). Use this stock solution to prepare the working solutions. 1) For

Select four appropriate consecutive dilutions from Table 1 for the determination, based on previous experience or, if necessary, after
31、undertaking a ranging test as described in 9.2. Table 1 Phenol working solutions: concentrations Prepare 100 mL of the first dilution required by adding, by means of a burette the appropriate amount of stock solution (5.4.1) to a 100 mL measuring cylinder and making up to 100 mL with water also meas
32、ured by means of a burette. After mixing, remove 10 mL of this first dilution by means of a delivery pipette (6.2.8) and place 2.5 mL of this in the first test-tube (6.2.6), discard the remaining 7.5 mL. Add 10 mL of water to the measuring cylinder, by means of a pipette (6.2.3). After mixing by rep
33、eated inversion of the cylinder, remove a further 10 mL, add 2.5 mL of this to the second test-tube of the series, discarding the remaining 7.5 mL, and add a further 10 mL of water to the measuring cylinder. Continue the dilution process until the required range of dilutions has been obtained. 5.5 Y
34、east suspension 5.5.1 Yeast, 250 g moist bakers yeast. NOTEIt is best to obtain the yeast locally so that it is as fresh as possible. 5.5.2 Crumble the yeast (5.5.1) by hand into a 1 L beaker and slowly add 500 mL of water, creaming and stirring with a heavy glass rod until all the lumps are mixed i
35、n. Weigh three suitable dishes with a reasonably large surface area (the base of a 90 mm glass Petri dish is ideal) and record their masses. Thoroughly stir the yeast suspension and add 10 0.1 g, weighed to an accuracy of 1 mg, of yeast suspension from the beaker to each of the dishes. Place the res
36、t of the yeast suspension in a refrigerator at 0 C to 4 C. Place each of the dishes in a drying oven (6.2.11) at 105 C and dry. Allow to cool in a desiccator and reweigh. Dry the dishes and contents in the oven, cool and reweigh and continue to repeat these procedures until two consecutive weighings
37、 are within 1 mg. Calculate the mean dry mass of yeast as a percentage of the moist material. NOTEAn initial period of 4 h in the drying oven followed by one or two 1 h periods have been found to cover most cases. Measure the volume of the yeast suspension by transferring from the beaker to a 2 L me
38、asuring cylinder (6.2.7) swirling it to mix as it is poured out and making sure that no lumps remain. Record the volume. Calculate the volume of diluent to be added to obtain a 5 % (m/m) suspension, calculated on the dry mass of the yeast. Add that amount of diluent to the cylinder using some of thi
39、s diluent to wash out the beaker. Transfer 100 mL aliquot portions into screw-capped bottles. Sterilize (see clause 4). NOTEBy marking the level in the bottle before autoclaving, those which show any excessive loss in the autoclaving process can be discarded. Allow the bottles to cool slowly and the
40、n store them in a refrigerator at 0 C to 4 C for at least 6 weeks before use. Take one bottle of the prepared yeast suspension, empty the contents into a sterile 150 mL beaker, and by means of a pH meter (6.2.12) determine the pH of the suspension. Add, with stirring, 0.1 mol/L sodium hydroxide solu
41、tion from a burette until a pH of 6.9 to 7.1 is obtained. Measure the amount of sodium hydroxide solution required. To each of the other bottles in the batch add aseptically the calculated amount of sterile 1 mol/L sodium hydroxide solution. 5.6 Yeast and Salmonella typhi suspension For the determin
42、ation, prepare a mixture in the proportion of 48 mL of yeast suspension (5.5), at room temperature, and 2 mL of well mixed Salmonella typhi culture (5.3), in a small flask and allow to stand in a water bath at 20 C. Make the suspension not more than 1 h before it is added to the dilutions of phenol
43、or test disinfectant. Shake well before use. 5.7 Solid culture medium Dissolve agar in the required volume of freshly prepared broth (5.2) to give an agar content of 15 g/L to 20 g/L. Adjust the pH value, if necessary, to a value that will result in a pH value of 7.4 0.1 at 25 C after sterilization.
44、 Dispense the medium into the tubes (6.2.6), sterilize them as described in clause 4 and allow to set in the form of slopes. % 2.47 2.22 2.0 1.8 1.62 1.458 1.312 1.18 1.062 Licensed Copy: London South Bank University, London South Bank University, Fri Dec 08 00:58:12 GMT+00:00 2006, Uncontrolled Cop
