This Standard applies to the determination of aerobic plate count in food.
2 Terms and definitions
2.1 Aerobic plate count
The total number of microbiological colonies formed in per g (mL) of test sample,
which is obtained after the food sample under test is processed and cultured under
certain conditions (such as culture medium, culture temperature, and incubation time,
etc.).
3 Equipment and materials
In addition to the routine sterilization and culture equipment in the microbiology
laboratory, other equipment and materials are as follows.
a) Constant-temperature incubator.
b) Refrigerator.
c) Thermostat.
d) Balance. Sensitivity is 0.1 g.
e) Homogenizer.
f) Oscillator.
g) Sterile straw. 1 mL (with 0.01 mL scale), 10 mL (with 0.1 mL scale) or
micropipette and tip.
h) Sterile conical flask. Capacity is 250 mL and 500 mL.
i) Sterile petri dish. Diameter is 90 mm.
j) pH meter or pH colorimetric tube or precision pH test paper.
k) Magnifying glass or/and colony counter.
4 Medium and reagents
4.1 Plate count agar medium. See A.1.
4.2 Test piece of aerobic plate count. It shall meet the quality control requirements of
plate count agar medium in GB 4789.28.The main nutrients are consistent with the
formula of plate count agar medium.
4.3 Sterile phosphate buffer. See A.2.
5 Examination procedure
The examination procedure for aerobic plate count is shown in Figure 1.
6 Operation steps
6.1 Dilution of sample
6.1.1 Solid and semi-solid sample. Weigh 25 g of sample; place it in a sterile
homogeneous cup filled with 225 mL of sterile phosphate buffer or sterile normal saline.
Homogenize at 8000 r/min~10000 r/min for 1 min~2 min. Or put it into a sterile
homogeneous bag containing 225 mL of diluent. Use a slap-type homogenizer to beat
for 1 min~2 min, to make a 1.10 sample homogenate.
Test sample25 g (mL) of sample + 225 mL of diluent,homogenized10-fold serial dilution
Culture Add 15 mL~20 mL of plate count agar
medium to each dish and mix well Select 1~3 sample homogenates of
appropriate dilution; add 1 mL of each to asterile petri dish Count the number of colonies
on each plate Calculate the aerobic plate count Report Culture at 36 °C±1 °C for 48 h±2 h. Aquatic
products are cultured at 30 °C±1 °C for 72 h±3 h
6.1.2 Liquid sample. Use a sterile straw to pipette 25 mL of sample; place it in a sterile
conical flask containing 225 mL of sterile phosphate buffer or sterile normal saline (an
appropriate number of sterile glass beads can be preset in the bottle); and mix
thoroughly. Or put it into a sterile homogeneous bag containing 225 mL of diluent. Use
a slap-type homogenizer to beat for 1 min~2 min, to make a 1.10 sample homogenate.
When the result is required to be the aerobic plate count per g of sample, operate
according to 6.1.1.
6.1.3 Use a 1 mL sterile straw or micropipette to draw 1 mL of the 1.10 sample
homogenate; along the tube wall, slowly inject it into a sterile test tube containing 9 mL
of diluent (be careful not to touch the surface of the diluent with the pipette or the tip).
Oscillate and mix on an oscillator, to make a 1.100 sample homogenate.
6.1.4 According to the operation in 6.1.3, prepare a 10-fold serial dilution of the sample
homogenate. For each incremental dilution, use a new 1 mL sterile straw or tip.
6.1.5 According to the estimation of the contamination status of sample, select 1 to 3
sample homogenates with appropriate dilution (liquid samples can include stock
solution). Pipette 1 mL of the sample homogenate into a sterile petri dish; make two
petri dishes for each degree of dilution. At the same time, respectively pipette 1 mL of
blank diluent; add it to two sterile petri dishes as blank control.
6.1.6 In a timely manner, pour 15 mL~20 mL of plate count agar medium cooled to
46 °C~50 °C (which can be kept in a thermostat at 48 °C±2 °C) into a petri dish; rotate
the petri dish to make it evenly mixed.
6.2 Culture
6.2.1 Place horizontally until the agar solidifies; turn the plate over; incubate at
36 °C±1 °C for 48 h±2 h. Aquatic products are cultured at 30 °C±1 °C for 72 h±3 h. If
the sample may contain colonies that spread and grow on the surface of the agar
medium, it is possible to cover the surface of the solidified agar medium with a thin
layer of plate count agar medium (about 4 mL). After solidification, turn the plate over
and culture.
6.2.2 If the test piece of aerobic plate count is used, it shall be operated in accordance
with the relevant technical regulations provided for the test piece.
6.3 Colony count
6.3.3 When one of the plates has larger flaky colonies, it is not suitable to use it. The
plate without larger flaky colonies shall be used as the colony count of the degree of
dilution. If the flaky colonies are less than half of the plate, and the colonies in the
remaining half are evenly distributed, it is possible to calculate the number of the half
plate and multiply it by 2, to represent the number of colonies on one plate.
6.3.4 When there is a chain growth with no clear boundary between the colonies on the
plate, count each single chain as a colony.
7 Result and report
7.1 Calculation method of aerobic plate count
7.1.1 If the number of colonies on only one dilution plate is within the appropriate count
range, calculate the average of the number of colonies on the two plates; then multiply
the average by the corresponding dilution factor as the aerobic plate count per g (mL)
of the sample. Example is given in B.1.
7.1.2 If the number of colonies on the plate with two serial dilutions is within the
appropriate count range, calculate according to formula (1). For an example, see B.2.
Where.
7.1.3 If the number of colonies on all dilution plates is greater than 300 CFU, the plate
with the highest dilution shall be counted. The other plates can be recorded as
uncountable. The result shall be calculated by multiplying the average number of
colonies by the highest dilution ratio. For an example, see B.3.
7.1.4 If the plate colony count of all dilutions is less than 30 CFU, it shall be calculated
by multiplying the average colony count with the lowest dilution by the dilution ratio.
For an example, see B.4.
7.1.5 If plates at all degrees of dilution (including liquid sample stock solution) have no
colony growth, it shall be calculated by multiplying less than 1 by the minimum dilution
ratio. For an example, see B.5.
7.1.6 If the number of colonies on the plates at all degrees of dilution is not between 30
CFU and 300 CFU, and some of them are less than 30 CFU or greater than 300 CFU,
it shall be calculated by multiplying the average colony number closest to 30 CFU or
300 CFU by the dilution ratio. For an example, see B.6.
