3.2 Methods :3.2.1 Collection of Samples : This study was carried out during a period extended from( December 2011 to June 2012 ) . A total of 200 samples from imported chicken meat and beef in the different markets of the city of al- Diwaniyah divided into a one hundred samples of chicken and a one hundred samples of beef were selected five origins of chicken and beef available in the local market, the origins of chicken meat (al-murad , alkafeel, thighs U.S.A, Turkish Chicken, Jordan Chicken) the beef origins (Australian meat, Emirates meat , al-murad , India , meat AL-kafeel) 25 g were taken from each sample from wing and thighs muscles and in 5 ml of tetrathionate broth and transported to the laboratory in portable container, then incubated for 18-24 hrs at 42 C˚.

3.2.2: Isolation and Identification of Salmonella spp.: A loopful of u hthtbihsacviht broth culture was streaked on surface of , bismuth sulphate agar and the positive growth than cultured on chromogenic salmonella agar plates then incubated at 37C˚ for 24 hrs . The biochemical characters of non – lactose fermenting bacteria was determined by using TSI agar and urease test and other biochemical tests. Colonies that showed biochemical characteristics similar to that of Salmonella spp. were tested by API 20- E system and the confirmation was identified by PCR with 16s r RNA genes primers for detection of Salmonella spp. and S.typhimurium

B: Sterilization by filtration :the solutions which were affected by high temperature were sterilized by filtration through Millipore filter (0.2µm) C: Dry heat sterilization: The glasses were sterilized by dry heat in an electric oven at 180C˚ for 2 hrs. 

3.2.4.: Laboratory Prepared Media:  



A : Urea Agar Medium: This medium was prepared by dissolving 24g of urea agar base in 1000 ml of distilled water, the pH was adjusted to 6.8and sterilized by autoclaving, cooled to 50C˚,then aseptically adding50ml of 40% sterile urea solution, mixed thoroughly, distributed into sterile test tubes and allowed tubes to solidify in a slanted position (Collee, et al., 1996).  

 D: Chromogenic salmonella agar : Salmonella chromogenic agar is a new selective Rombach ,(1990)

used for the

chromogenic medium,

detection and presumptive identification of

Salmonella species from stool samples, foods and Waters .The media used, traditionally,

to

differentiate

species

of

Salmonella

from

the

rest

of

Enterobacteriaceae family, based on their capacity to produce hydrogen sulfide associated with its inability to ferment lactose,( Narquet and Roupas., 1996a) . are not really adequate as there are more than 2000 species of Salmonella, which do not have these characteristics. Casein peptone and Beef extract are the nutrient sources of nitrogen, vitamins, amino acids and minerals; the Chromogenic mixture aids in inhibiting Gram-positive organisms and Proteus and

Coliforms in

conjunction with the Sodium citrate. Bacteriological agar is the solidifying agent. To

identify Salmonella species, this chromogenic agent is based on the

combination of two

chromogenic substrates that ease quick identification. These

two chromogenes are X-gal and

Magenta-caprylate. X-gal is a substrate

incorporated to visualize the ,, ß-D-galactosidaseproducing

organisms as blue

colonies. Magenta colonies are a result of the hydrolysis of Magenta-caprylate by the Lactose negative Salmonella species. Thus, non-Salmonella organisms appear blue or are not stained by any of the chromogenes of the medium. Inoculate with sample and incubate at 35 ± 2°C for 18 – 24 hours. This media was prepared by dissolving 34.9 g in 1000ml distilled water disperse powder slowly in water by rotating the agar than heating and boiling to 100c .  E. Bismuth sulphate agar : This media prepared by dissolve 52 g in 1000 ml distilled water disappears powders slowly by rotating and heating and boiling to 100 c ,then sterilized by autoclaving.

B: Simmons Citrate Utilization Test: Medium was inoculated by streaking from saline suspension of the organism to be tested and Incubate for 24 - 48 hrs at 37C Positive result was indicated by blue color and streak of growth while negative result it is original green color and no growth (Collee et al., 1996).

C : Voges-Proskauer test: Methyl red – VogesProskauer (MR.VP) medium was inoculated with new culture colonies, and incubated at 37C˚for 24-48 hrs, then (1ml) of reagent VP1, and 3ml of reagent VP2 were added . A positive reaction was development of pink color in 2-5 minutes (Collee etal., 1996). [36]

D: Methyl Red Test: This test was done by inoculating MR-VP medium with new culture colonies, incubated at 37C˚ for 48 hrs . About five drops of the methyl red reagent was added and mixed then read immediately. The positive tests were bright red, while the negative tests were yellow (D’Aoust, et al .,2001)

E: Motility Test: The motility test medium was inoculated with a straight inoculation, making a single state down the center of the tube to about half the depth of the medium . It was incubated under the conditions favoring motility incubation at 37C˚. An examination was done after hours 1, 2 and 6 days (Collee et al., 1996). F: Indole Test: Peptone water medium was inoculated with new culture colonies and at incubated 37C˚. for 24 hrs , then drops from Kovacs reagent were added . A red color in the alcohol layer indicated a positive reaction (Collee et al., 1996). G: Urease Test: The test was done by inoculation of urea agar medium with new culture colonies and incubated aerobically

at 37C˚ for 24 hrs. A positive result was

recorded by changing the color of the media from yellow to pink due to the ability of an organism to split urea , forming two molecules of ammonia by the action of the urease H : Catalase Test: A small amount of the bacterial growth was obtained and suspended in a drop of hydrogen peroxide 3% on a glass slide, and observed for evolution of bubbles as a positive result (MacFaddin, 2000).

3.2.6: API20-E system: A: Preparation of bacterial suspension: 1: A large colony (2-3 mm diameter) of the bacterium was inoculated into the 0.85% NaCl solution, making sure that the suspension was homogenous and without clumps of floating bacteria. 2:

A MacFerland barium sulfate standard(0.5) ( growth equivalent to1.5 X108 cell/ml ) was prepared.

B: Inoculation of the API strip: 1: The strip was hold at a slight angle up from the table top then ,

the bacterial

suspension was inoculated into each well with the sterile pipette. 2: The end of the pipette was touched to the side of the cupule, allowing capillary action to draw the fluid into the well as the bulb

was slowly squeezed. This

should eliminate any bubbles forming in the wells. Each well was filled up to the neck (Table 8). 3: Citrate utilization (Cit), acetoin production(VP) and gelatinase (GEL) had boxes around their names. These test wells were filled all the way up to the top of the well. 4: Lysinedecarboxylase (LDC), Ornithine

decarboxylase (ODC), arginine

dihydrolase (ADH),H2S production and Urea hydrolysis (URE) were filled as described in step B, but they were then filled up to the top with sterile mineral oil. C: Incubating the Strip in its Chamber: 1: The bottom of the incubation chamber had small indented wells in the bottom filled with water just enough to fill these indentations. 2: The strip into this bottom was placed . 3:The top of the incubation chamber was placed over the bottom and labeled it. 4: The strip was incubated aerobically at 37C˚ for 18-24 hours.

: Interpretation: 1. The proper reagents were added to the compartments:  1 drop of Kovac's reagents added to the Indole production ( IND) (reading within a couple of minutes).  1drop of

Barritt's A and B added to acetoin production (VP) ( a + ve

reaction may take up to10 min)

)

 1 drop of FeCl3 to TDA 2. All other tests as described (chart below) were read without reagents. 3. Results on the diagram handed out to you in lab (1, 2 or 4 points for +ve reaction, 0 points for –ve reaction) were recorded. The oxidase test reaction was negative, and was added as the last test results. 4. Three test reactions were added together at a time to give a 7- digit number, which could then be looked up in the codebook.
