FAQ
What is the Slanetz Bartley Medium (ISO 7899-2:2000) used for in microbiology?
The Slanetz Bartley Medium is a prepared plate used for the enumeration of fecal streptococci in water and other samples.
How are the Slanetz Bartley Medium plates prepared and stored?
The Slanetz Bartley Medium plates are prepared by inoculating the medium with a sample and then incubating the plates at a specific temperature for a set period of time. After incubation, the plates should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
What are the advantages of using the Slanetz Bartley Medium for enumeration of fecal streptococci?
The Slanetz Bartley Medium provides a selective environment that promotes the growth of fecal streptococci while inhibiting the growth of other bacteria. This allows for accurate and reliable enumeration of fecal streptococci in samples.
What is the typical incubation period required for the Slanetz Bartley Medium plates?
The Slanetz Bartley Medium plates should be incubated at 35-37°C for 48 hours. After the incubation period, colonies of fecal streptococci can be easily identified and counted.
What quality control measures should be implemented when using the Slanetz Bartley Medium?
It is important to perform quality control measures such as sterility testing of the medium, incubation of control strains, and checking for typical colony morphology when using the Slanetz Bartley Medium for enumeration of fecal streptococci.
