More specifically, the present invention relates to a medium composition for testing the starch utilization ability of glucose non-fermenting Gram-negative bacilli. In order to provide appropriate treatment for bacterial infections, it is important to identify the pathogen, conduct susceptibility tests, and determine effective drugs against the pathogen. When identifying such pathogenic bacteria, a multi-item biochemical property test is performed, and one of the items is a test for starch utilization ability of glucose non-fermenting Gram-negative rods. This utilizes the starch hydrolyzing ability of the above-mentioned bacteria to identify the bacteria. The medium composition of the present invention is suitably used for such tests. Prior art and its problems Traditionally, ordinary agar medium,
Bacteria are inoculated onto SCD (soybean casein digest) agar medium containing 0.1-0.2% starch, or Mueller-Hinton agar medium (containing 0.15% starch), and cultured at 30°C for 1-2 days. Afterwards, Lugol's solution is added to the area where the bacteria are growing to make a determination. If the starch is hydrolyzed, it will be transparent; if it is not, it will be dark brown. Although it is possible to test starch utilization using conventional media, the reaction rate is slow because agar is used as the media material.
It takes 1 to 2 days for the determination. For early treatment of bacterial infections, it is necessary to identify bacteria as quickly as possible, and there has been a desire for a culture medium that can identify bacteria in a shorter time. However, on the other hand, due to the convenience of testing work, there are cases where the judgment has to be made the next day, and in such cases, the culture period is not strictly regulated and the culture time may be extended for convenience. It is desirable to use a medium that does not overreact and allows accurate determination. Purpose of the Invention The present invention provides a medium composition for testing the starch utilization ability of glucose non-fermenting Gram-negative bacilli, which can be identified in a short time culture and can be accurately identified even in a long time culture. The purpose is to A further object of the present invention is to provide the above-mentioned test medium composition that has a clear color reaction and is easy to judge. The above object of the present invention is to use 1.0 parts of starch (parts by weight,
The same applies hereinafter) to 0.4 to 4.0 parts of peptone, 0.02 to 0.2 parts of a monoalkali metal salt of dihydrogen phosphate, and 0.18 to 1.8 parts of a dialkali metal salt of monohydrogen phosphate. This is achieved by a medium composition for testing starch availability. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION In the culture medium composition of the present invention, starch is the substrate, and when it is hydrolyzed by the test bacteria, the color of the iodine-starch reaction in the culture medium becomes lighter. Based on this change, the ability of the test bacteria to utilize starch is determined. Peptone is used as a nutrient. Monoalkali metal dihydrogen phosphate and dialkali metal monohydrogen phosphate are PH regulators, and the pH is optimal for bacterial growth.
It is set to a range of 7.0 to 7.6. It is desirable that the medium composition of the present invention further contains 2 to 30 parts of an alkali metal salt as an osmotic pressure regulator, with alkali metal chlorides such as sodium chloride and potassium chloride being preferred. The above-mentioned component ratios of the culture medium composition of the present invention are critical, and the starch concentration is particularly important. If the starch concentration is too low, a false positive determination is likely to occur; conversely, if it is too high, a false negative determination is likely to occur.
The culture medium of the present invention has a low risk of making false positive or false negative judgments as described above, and can be cultured for a short time (4 to 5 hours) or overnight (18 to 5 hours) by appropriately selecting the number of inoculated bacteria. The starch concentration is set so that correct judgment can be made regardless of the time (22 hours). The medium composition of the present invention is used by dissolving predetermined amounts of each component in water according to a conventional method. In recent years, it has become common for biochemical property tests to simultaneously perform multiple tests on multi-well plates, and in such cases, the culture medium of the present invention is injected into the wells of the test plate and dried to form a dry medium. . During the test, a predetermined amount of suspension water of test bacteria is dispensed into the well, and cultured at 30°C for a predetermined time. If it is desired to make a judgment after culturing for 4 to 5 hours, inoculate about 7.5 x 107 bacteria per 50μ of liquid medium, and if you want to make a judgment after culturing for 18 to 22 hours, about 1.5 x 107 bacteria. It is preferable to inoculate the bacteria. By adjusting the number of inoculated bacteria in this way,
Tests can be performed in a short period of time or even the next day. Next, an example will be shown in which the ability of bacteria to utilize starch was tested using the medium composition of the present invention. Example The culture medium composition of the present invention having the composition shown in Table 1 was dissolved in distilled water 1 according to a conventional method to obtain culture media 1 to 3 for bacterial identification.

By using the culture medium of the present invention, it is possible to correctly identify bacteria regardless of the length of the culture time. Therefore, either same-day identification or next-day identification can be selected depending on the convenience of the inspection work.
