Media preparation and sterilization, Aseptic technique & pure culture concept Introduction In natural environments, microorganisms usually exist as mixed populations. Sterilization removes infecting micro-organisms it can also remove pathogenic micro-organisms or spoiling agents. 1) Standard mode: Heating up, sterilization and cooling down to dispensing temperature. �N �v���b^C�`�Bj�a��@s)�� �S �ډ _�S���q���.��H rSP. Safeguarding the quality of this media is therefore critical to the success of the microbiology laboratory. References 148. Sterilize the medium in a validated autoclave at 1 kg/cm2 (15 psi), 121 °C, for the time period described under Sterilization of Media Protocol. The culture media need to be sterilized to make sure all pathogen was damaged. 8-step-process for making culture media Besides, different types of agar are needed for the cultivation of different types of microorganisms. %%EOF

INTRODUCTION Culture medium is a liquid or gel designed to support the growth of microorganisms or cells, or small plants like the moss Physcomitrella patens.There are different types of media for growing different types of cells. Although sterilization of culture media is best carried out in a steam autoclave at temperatures between 121-134°C it has to be recognised that damage is caused to the medium by the heating process. Following sterilization in a flask or bottle, the media is poured into plates using aseptic technique, preferably in a sterile cabinet (laminar flow hood). Sterilization during autoclaving depends mainly on temperature. The sterilized materials are removed when temperature cools down and used according to procedure adopted.

Add heat labile constituents after autoclaving. INDEX. Control of culture media, in terms of appropriate records through to plate reading, forms an important part of data integrity in the microbiology laboratory (as assessed by Saha (2016) and Sandle (2016) (2, 3). Culture media is an important part of pharmaceutical microbiology: to enumerate and identify microorganisms . 1 Sterilization techniques. 5.2.9 Also make relevant entries in the Autoclave sterilization Record in SOP (Operation of Autoclave). Preparation of sterilized explant material. There is specific temperature for sterilization of culture media. 10. Summary 147. Sterilization is at 121 °C (15 lb in ˉ²) for 15 minutes. Sterilization of Culture Media Nutrient media as initially prepared contain a variety of different vegetative cells and spores, derived from the constituents of the culture me-dium, the water, and the vessel. The time required for sterilization depends upon the volume of medium in the vessel. Any of the precaution steps should be carried out carefully to ensure unwanted errors to occur. 0
The sterilization process is a 100% kill, and guarantees that the medium will stay sterile UNLESS exposed to contaminants by less than adequate aseptic technique to exposure to air. Plant tissue culture media are generally sterilized by autoclaving at 121 °C and 1.05 kg/cm 2 (15-20 psi). 5.2.8 Enter details of prepared media in the ‘Media Preparation Register’.
