Documentation
ATCC determines the biosafety level of a material based on our risk assessment as guided by the current edition of Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It is your responsibility to understand the hazards associated with the material per your organization’s policies and procedures as well as any other applicable regulations as enforced by your local or national agencies.
ATCC highly recommends that appropriate personal protective equipment is always used when handling vials. For cultures that require storage in liquid nitrogen, it is important to note that some vials may leak when submersed in liquid nitrogen and will slowly fill with liquid nitrogen. Upon thawing, the conversion of the liquid nitrogen back to its gas phase may result in the vial exploding or blowing off its cap with dangerous force creating flying debris. Unless necessary, ATCC recommends that these cultures be stored in the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen rather than submersed in liquid nitrogen.

1. Sterilize the top of the Balch tube by spraying it with 70% ethanol and then flame the top.
2. If needed exchange the gas in the test tube for 80% N2 20% CO2.
4. When the Balch tube is ready to inoculate, open the freeze dried vial and rehydrated the freeze dried pellet with 0,5 ml of broth (Use a anaerobic syringe to with draw 0.5 ml of broth from the balch tube). The rehydration step should be performed under a gentle stream of oxygen-free gas to insure that the anaerobic conditions are mainatained.
5. For inoculation, use an anaerobic (see c below) 1.0 ml syringe tipped with 22-gauge needle, withdraw the cell suspension from the vial and transfer it to the broth. Plate 0.1 ml of the inoculated culture onto a non-selective medium and incubate aerobically at 37oC. Use 0.1 ml of the inoculated culture to inoculate a nonselective aerobic broth and an additional tube of #1465 broth. Incubate the non-selective aerobic broth tubes at 37oC. Incubate the #1465 broth culture at 70oC.
6. Growth should be detected in the #1465 broth within 24 to 48 hours. There should be no growth detected on the aerobic plate or in the aerobic broth.
ANAEROBIC CONDITIONS:
a. Resazurin is a commonly used redox indicator that is pink when the redox potential is above 50 mv., and colorless when the redox potential is below 110 mv. i.e. highly reducing. Most strict anaerobes require this low redox potential for optimum growth.
b. To obtain a fully reduced medium, it is necessary that the medium be anoxic and that a reducing agent be added. Common reducing agents are sodium sulfide, cysteine, dithiothreitol, and titanium citrate.
c. Syringes can be made anaerobic by one of two methods. 1. Displace the dead space in the syringe with a sterile
- Handling notes
-
Cells are non-motile rods that occur singly, in pairs and chains. Colonies on #1465 are white, rounded, and circular, with smooth edges.
