Conventionally, the following methods have been used to detect bacteria such as Vibrio cholerae and Salmonella. That is, as shown in FIG.
The sample 8 for which bacteria such as Vibrio cholerae and Salmonella are to be detected is introduced into the sample and incubated at a temperature of around 35°C for a predetermined period of time, usually 5 to 6 hours or 18 to 20 hours. Then, a predetermined amount of the supernatant of the first-stage culture is collected and inoculated into a second incubator 10 into which another culture medium 9 has been charged in advance,
After culturing this at the same temperature for a predetermined period of time, the presence or absence of bacteria such as Vibrio cholerae and Salmonella is investigated and detected. In this conventional method, when inoculating a predetermined amount of the first culture cultured in the first incubator 6 into the medium 9 of the second incubator 10, a device such as a dropper or pipette is used to inoculate the medium 9 at each location. Vaccination was carried out using a quantitative method, which required complicated and time-consuming work. For this reason, the effort and time involved are enormous, and there is currently a strong desire for the development of means that can do this simply and easily, and in a short period of time.

The inventor of the present invention has been conducting intensive research to meet the above requirements, and as a result has succeeded in developing a device that can achieve the desired purpose. That is, the present invention comprises a first incubator 1 and a second incubator 2 with a larger capacity.
The contents of the first incubator 1 are transferred to the second incubator 2 by simply tilting the connecting tube 3.
This invention relates to an automatic bacterial culture inoculation device characterized in that the device is adapted to be moved.

The present invention will be explained using FIG. 2. As shown in FIG. 2A, a first incubator 1 and a second incubator 2 are connected by a connecting pipe 3. At this time, the second incubator 2 has a larger capacity than the first incubator 1, and usually has a larger diameter than the first incubator. The shape and material of these first and second culture vessels are not particularly limited as long as they can culture bacteria, and can be appropriately selected from a wide range of materials.Specifically, examples include glass, synthetic resin, enamel, etc. A typical example is a cylindrical container made of glass, ie, a container such as a glass test tube. In the case of containers such as glass test tubes, for example, the diameter is about 10 to 20 mm and the height is 50 to 20 mm.
Something about 200mm can be preferably used. Connecting pipe 3 for connecting the first incubator 1 and the second incubator 2 and transferring the contents of the first incubator to the second incubator 2
However, there is no particular restriction as long as the above movement is possible. The location at which the connecting tube 3 is fixed to the first incubator 1 is determined depending on the amount of the medium and sample to be used, and may be set at a location 5 higher than the total amount 4 of both. The connecting tube 3 and the second incubator 2 are preferably connected so that the connecting tube 3 is substantially horizontal.

When culturing and inoculating using the culture and inoculation device of the present invention, a medium and a specimen are placed in the first incubator 1 in the conventional manner, cultured for a predetermined period of time, and then tilted at an appropriate angle. Due to this inclination, the supernatant portion of the culture in the first incubator is transferred to the second incubator 2 through the connecting pipe 3, as shown in FIG. 2B. By appropriately setting the angle at this time, a desired amount of supernatant liquid can be transferred to the second culture vessel 2 and inoculated. A predetermined culture medium is introduced into the second culture vessel 2 before inoculation.
Since this second incubator 2 has a larger capacity (i.e. has a larger diameter) than the first incubator 1, the top surface of the medium is lower than that of the first incubator, so that the medium can be moved through the connecting tube 3. The supernatant of the first culture was
The upper surface of the medium in the second culture vessel 2 will be successfully inoculated.
