Buffer No. 4 are prepared. Diluents are specific to each antibiotic and are listed in USP <81>. E. Growth Media and Additional Test Solutions In order to culture a pure and robust test organism, proper use and preparation of growth media (agar or broth), buffers and diluents is required. Components or final preparations of growth media, reagents or diluents may be prepared on-site and/or purchased from outside sources. Regardless of origin, any final product made from growth media components and/or preparations must be verified for identification, expiry, sterility and growth promotion, prior to use in test. Refer to USP <81> for preparation, use and storage of all growth media, buffers and diluents. F. Antibiotic Potency Testing: Plate Method The Plate Method is the most commonly used USP <81> test. The Plate Method uses a solid medium (agar) to demonstrate antibiotic activity (i.e. zones of inhibitions (ZOIs)). This method requires the use of a five-point standard curve [S1] – [S5], median reference standard [S3], test antibiotic/ unknown sample [U3], verified inoculum, stainless steel penicylinders and petri-plates containing growth agar. See Diagram 1 for an example of one independent test run for the Plate Method and placement of the standard curve and unknown sample onto triplicate agar plates. Depending upon the antibiotic, either a single layer or bi-layer agar plates are used in test. See USP <81> for preparation for single and bi-layer agar plates. 1. Single Layer Plates: Prior to solidification, the growth agar is inoculated with a known volume of the verified test microorganism. The inoculated agar is thoroughly mixed, poured into a petri-plate and allowed to solidify. 2. Bi-layer Plates: Prior to solidification, a portion of the growth agar is poured into the base of a petri-plate and allowed to solidify; this is the base layer of the test plate. The remaining portion of growth agar is further cooled and inoculated with a known volume of verified test organism. This inoculated agar is thoroughly mixed, poured onto the cooled base layer and allowed to solidify. Once the agar solidifies (either single layer or bi-layer agar plate), stainless steel penicylinders are applied to the agar surface using a penicylinder dispenser. Penicylinders are applied in an equidistant and upright fashion. Each penicylinder should be immediately dosed with two concentrations of antibiotic, the diluted unknown sample [U3] or the median reference standard (S3). Further, both antibiotics are dosed in equal volume into alternating penicylinders. See Diagram 2 for further details. |
