Very nice, I really like it. just one rectification. It says incubate the plate @35 degree but in the video it showed putting the plate in the hot air oven.
This video is amazing mam, but I have a question, please reply. Actually, you told that E coli will appear blue in color on this media, but it is a gram negative bacteria. Then it should appear pink in color. Please tell me why this happens.
If we cannot count the number of "blue colonies", & "blue & purple colonies" we have to do dilution before filtering. So in that case, how to do dilution ? And how to do calculations ? Plzz explain. Thanks.
I have a query..Suppose E coli (blue colony) is present in 70 CFU and coliform(pink colony) are absent.Then what should be the report? Total coliform=70 CFU E coli= 70 CFU - is this to be written in the report? Please clear my doubt
Hello. Thanks for the video. It was nicely explained. I would like to ask that how will we determine the water quality using this filter membrane method and what are some disadvantages of using this method.
If pathogenic bacteria is found, means that the water is bad in quality. Only disadvantage is that it is applicable for water sample with low bacterial count
Is it normal to observe something at the extremities of the filter ? Are they growing colonies ? Or do some metabolites reacts with the medium ? Or is it something else ?
In this viedo you have told that incubate the petri plate without inverting it ,but in ISO 9308-1 it there to invert the petri plate. Which is correct please make it sure.
Nice video ! Please can this technique be used for testing of Ecoli,Coliform,salmonella,pseudomonas and staphylococcus organisms present in sanitary pad. And if yes will it involve just diluting the sample in water ?
Yes. This method can be applied after diluting your sample in sterile distilled water if the expected microbial count is low. But if the expected microbial count in your sample is high, then you have to follow different method as I have already uploaded for enumeration of E.coli, coliform & salmonella from different sample. Please find those tests from my channel.
Good introduction. Can we put the filter paper into the liquid media in the flask after filtration instead of the Petri plates for growing the bacteria?
cant you use M -Fc agar LES for E.coli and M Endo Agar LES for total coliform organisms???by seeing this i can feel that results would be very hard to take
I remember when this stuff was part of my continued education studies for licensure, I'm now to screwed over and drunk to care. Maybe I need methamphetamines
The same procedure will be followed except DRBC agar plate should be used replacing the Chromocult Coliform Agar and incubate at 25 degree Celsius for 3-5 days. Total fungal colonies on membrane filter is the total yeast & mold.
You guys are awesome ! Love that you are willing to help I am trying to set up a lab for sanitary pad and I need agar to buy I will be testing for the presence of ecoil&coliform, yeast&mold, salmonella,staphylococcus aureus, pseudomonas aeroginosa, total viable count.

We know the composition but making in local lab is difficult
How could you use filter paper without pre wet
Try as shown in this video. It will work
What is the active ingredient that is responsible for giving color to colonies?
Different media have different ingredients and give different colored colonies. Please study about media composition in Google

Zero coliform per 100ml drinking water

hi, i have a question. does the filtration appratus need to be autoclave for each sample? Thank you
Yes
Hi, i have a question? How do i sterilise the agar medium since it can't be autoclaved?
No need to sterilize it. Just dissolve the media as per the instruction mentioned in the label or catalog of the media
Thanks, one question: if the filter paper is not inverted while placing on agar, how the filtered microbes present at the top side of filter come in contact with the media?
Microorganisms absorb nutrients from the media through the semi permeable filter paper
@@MicroChemsExperiments Thanks!
Is there any method to sterilize the membrane filters if they are not sealed?
If the filter autoclavable, then autoclave it to make it sterile
Hiw do we incorperate enrichment of the sample into this process?
Enrichment is not needed and not possible
can we use VRBA/EMB for Colifrm/E. Coli & PDA for Yeast/Mold?

Hey, could you tell me why you "don't invert plates during incubation". If you have some references to this method I would be appreciate if you could share. Thank you.
Hi, I feel if we incubate it in an inverted position, the filter paper may fall off from the media side of the plate.
You shouldn't invert the plate because filter paper is on the surface of the media. Reference: Iso 9308-1:2017
@@MicroChemsExperiments thanks for the useful info, but as in ISO 9308-1/2014: after filteration, place the membrane filter on the agar. ensuring that no air is trapped underneath, invert petridish and incubate at 36 *c for 24h!

No. This method is applicable only for Water sample
Membrane filtration technique for water samples using chromocult agar I observed some transparent colonies apart from pink and blue colonies. So, I want to ask what organism is that transparent colonies. Can u explain.

ISO 9308
No need to autoclave the medium?
No. No need to autoclave
Is the measuring cylinder sterile ?
Yes.
I have question. For membrane filtration technique, it is advisable to filter 3 different volume. Do i need to sterilised the filtration unit in between filtering 3 volume or i can filter 3 different volume using the same filtration unit?
Sterilisation for 3 times is best but you can sterilise only once for 3 volumes of sample as you are taking same sample.
