society, fulfilling sociological and cultural needs as well as basic survival and nutritional ones. All consumers should have confidence that the food they choose will be safe and wholesome to eat. Food is therefore regularly tested throughout the supply chain for the presence of undesirable micro-organisms, in order to ensure that it is of acceptable microbiological quality. Laboratories carrying out such microbiological testing need to be able to demonstrate that they are producing accurate and meaningful results. This can be done by conducting a comprehensive quality assurance programme, which includes regular participation in a suitable proficiency testing (PT) scheme. The Quality in Microbiology Scheme (QMS) is a PT scheme intended for use by microbiologists working in the food and dairy industries. The scheme includes a wide range of micro-organisms relevant to foods, including indicator organisms, spoilage organisms, and pathogens. Test materials Test materials are representative of food and dairy products. They may or may not contain the target organisms, along with relevant background flora. Inoculum levels for the target organisms will usually be within the following range; Detection tests Enumeration tests 0 to 10,000 cfu g-1 0 to 100,000 cfu g-1 Micro-organisms may be reference strains sourced from national culture collections, or may be fully characterised wild strains. The full range and availability of test materials in QMS is determined on an annual basis and issued on a ‘Schedule of Availability’ (Appendix I). Atypical strains may occasionally be included in test materials. Atypical strains can occur in ‘real’ foods and could be undetected or mis-identified. It therefore represents a realistic challenge to occasionally include atypical strains within a PT scheme. Quality Control The quality of test materials is an essential factor of any PT scheme, with test materials required to be sufficiently homogenous, stable for at least the timescale of the round and similar in nature to the samples routinely analysed by participants. For QMS, quality control tests are performed on every batch of test material prepared. Quality control test results are reported in Appendix III. Performance Assessment The assigned value for enumerated parameters is the robust mean of participant results after transformation to log10 (unless otherwise stated). The assigned value for qualitative parameters is determined from the test material formulation. All participant results are reported in tables as well as enumeration results being depicted graphically (Section 3). Additionally, each laboratory receives an individual summary of their submitted results. Enumeration results are subject to statistical assessment to help detect trends and enable comparison, using a performance indicator known as a z-score. All results are transformed to log10 prior to statistical analysis. z score = (x – X) σ x = the result reported by the participating laboratory X = the assigned value σ = the standard deviation for proficiency assessment The standard deviation used for proficiency assessment, also called the ‘target’ standard deviation, is reported in Appendix II. Page 1 Advice/feedback Technical comments are included in Section 4. These describe the sample contents, the overall distribution of results, methodologies used and may also suggest possible reasons behind poor performance. Although not exhaustive, the most frequently identified reasons behind unsatisfactory results in QMS are described below: • Calculation error Mis-calculation of the dilution factor or failing to take into account the volumes tested often gives results that are a factor of 10 or 100 times higher or lower than the assigned value. • Poor quality agar or reagents Agar is highly sensitive to temperatures, particularly to overheating. Overheating can result in the release of compounds that may be detrimental to the growth of micro-organisms. Many selective agars also contain supplements that are intended to recover particular organisms, but if added at too high a concentration, can actually inhibit growth of the same organism, e.g. coliforms are sensitive to bile salts, which are used in agar selective for coliforms. Such problems can be monitored by the use of internal quality control checks using reference organisms. However, reference organisms are carefully nurtured for this very purpose, and stressed organisms, such as those found in foods and in proficiency test materials, will not be as robust. • Inappropriate methodology Poor results may be due to use of inappropriate methods. For example, participants may report the use of VRBGA to obtain a coliform result, although this agar actually gives a total Enterobacteriaceae count. • Transcription error Part of the challenge of performing laboratory tests is the ability to accurately report results. Transcription errors, e.g. reporting the right result but on the wrong form or in the wrong units, are just as important as any other source of error and care must be taken to check results are reported correctly. • Inadequate confirmation Occasionally, participants assume that colony growth on selective agar is confirmation enough, and do not perform further, often relatively simple, confirmatory tests. Conversely, colonies may be immediately discounted if they do not initially appear as expected. Micro-organisms belonging to the same species can exhibit different characteristics, and it takes experience to correctly identify organisms from morphology alone. There are many other possible reasons for a single unsatisfactory result, including statistical chance. It is therefore important to interpret the results from PT schemes within the context of an all-round quality assurance programme, including internal quality control, use of validated methods and reference materials. A single poor result is not indicative of overall laboratory performance, but neither is a single good result. Ideally, PT results should be monitored over time to detect unusual bias or repeated unsatisfactory results which could be due to internal performance. In the event of obtaining an unsatisfactory result, repeat samples are available after every distribution. Further information on the scope and organisation of our proficiency testing schemes is available in the LGC Standards Proficiency Testing General Protocol and Individual Scheme Description.

The strain is characteristic in other confirmatory tests being H2S positive, lactose negative, citrate positive and urease negative. It is a group D Salmonella according to the Kauffmann-White Scheme with a full serological profile of ‘O’ antigen: 1, 9,12, [Vi]; ‘H’ phase 1 antigen: g, p. Result Observations Participants from a small number of laboratories reported false negative results of ‘Not Detected’. The strain of Salmonella species present in the test material is non-motile. Participants reporting these incorrect results may wish to assess if this characteristic of the Salmonella Dublin has affected their results. Test Details Salmonellae are Gram-negative non-spore forming rods that are oxidase negative and catalase positive, and are members of the Enterobacteriaceae family. Almost all Salmonella serotypes cause acute gastro-enteritis and account for a large proportion of all food poisoning outbreaks. Primary sources of Salmonellae are the gastrointestinal tract of animals, the organism can be transmitted via faeces into soil, water, feeds, foods and other animals, including humans. Food poisoning occurs when poor hygiene practices result in contamination, or if food is inadequately heated prior to consumption. Method Summary The vast majority of participants report the use of traditional enrichment methods. Pre-enrichment is commonly carried out with buffered peptone water, and selective enrichment with Rappaport-Vassiliadis broth and Muller-Kauffmann Tetrathionate-Novobiocin Broth (MKTTn). Selective streaking is carried out using; XLD, brilliant green agar, tryptone bile agar, hektoen, MLCB, Rambach, SMID, bismuth sulphite agar, lysine iron agar, SS agar and Kligler iron agar. MSRV medium is used for motility testing. Confirmatory tests reported include; Gram-staining, microscopy, oxidase, urease, VP and ONPG reaction, catalase, oxidation-fermentation testing, and triple sugar iron agar. The use of several kits and methods are reported and these include API 20 E and ID32E. A number of participants use serology as both a confirmatory test and for identification purposes. Page 105 Listeria species & Listeria monocytogenes (Detection) Test Material 07F146 Test Material Data Test Material Contents Number of results Intended Result Reported Correct Result Listeria monocytogenes @ 76 cfu/g Listeria species 243 Detected 100 % Listeria monocytogenes 286 Detected 98 % Organism Details The strain of Listeria monocytogenes present in the test material was isolated from a case of meningitis, where cheese was identified as the incriminating source of infection. Test Details There are seven species of Listeria, the most clinically significantly being Listeria monocytogenes, which is pathogenic for humans and animals. While other members of the Listeria genus are not usually implicated in disease, their presence indicates an increased risk of contamination by Listeria monocytogenes. Listeria may be shed in large numbers in milk from infected animals with, for example, mastitis. This may have financial implications and pose a health risk if the milk is due to be used for commercial purposes. In recent years, there has been a marked increase in the reported incidence of listeriosis. Listeria species are able to grow at temperatures as low as 1 to 5°C. Due to the severity of listeriosis infections in man, specification for routine testing of many dairy products and chilled food products is stringent, requiring the organism to be absent in 25g of food product. Method Summary Participants commonly use a first step of enrichment in broth, such as listeria enrichment broth, half Fraser broth or Fraser broth. After incubation, they then sub-culture onto selective agars, most frequently Oxford or Palcam. Other methods used by participants include most probable number methods, Listeria rapid test and ELISA techniques. Confirmatory tests for Listeria species and Listeria monocytogenes used by participants include haemolysis on blood agar, catalase test, CAMP test, evidence of tumbling motility in broth at 22°C, and rapid methods, such as API Listeria. Page 106 Clostridium species & Clostridium perfringens Test Material 10F146 Test Material Data Test Material Contents Clostridium bifermentans @ 457 cfu/g Number of results Intended Result Reported Correct Result Clostridium species 215 Detected 97 % Number of results Intended result Reported correct result Clostridium perfringens 326 <10 cfu/g 58% Organism Details Clostridium perfringens was absent from the test material. Clostridium bifermentans produces a toxin similar to that of Clostridium perfringens, but Clostridium bifermentans is not reported to be pathogenic to humans. It is naturally found in soil and, therefore may indicate poor hygiene if found in food. The strain present in the test material was originally isolated in 1916. Result Observations A significant number of laboratories incorrectly reported the presence of Clostridium perfringens, the majority of these did not report the use of a confirmatory method. Colonies of Clostridium bifermentans will produce black colonies on TSC and OPSP agars. However, during internal quality control performed at LGC Standards, colonies produced a negative reaction for acid and gas when incubated with crossley milk and gave an identification of Clostridium bifermentans using API 20 A. Participants may wish to investigate the significance of incorrectly identifying this organism internally. Test Details Clostridium is a large genus consisting of Gram-positive spore-forming anaerobes, they are usually straight rods which are catalase negative. Some species are strict anaerobes, and some are aerotolerant. Clostridia are often found in soil, some are responsible for human and animal disease, and others are associated with food spoilage. Clostridia are classified according to the shape and position of their spores, and by their physiological characteristics. Clostridium perfringens causes an intoxication form of food poisoning characterised by diarrhoea, stomach cramps, nausea, headache, and fever. Vomiting and bloody stools may also be present. In the young, milder symptoms usually occur, whereas the elderly may suffer from extreme illness. The duration of the illness is usually about 48 hours and recovery is usually complete and does not normally necessitate treatment. Foods most commonly associated with Clostridium perfringens contamination are usually high protein foods such as meat and poultry stews, sauces, gravies, pies, and casseroles. Method Summary The majority of participants use either OPSP or tryptose sulphite cycloserine agars and incubate their samples for 24 to 48 hours, with incubation temperatures ranging from 35 to 46°C. Both spread plates and pour plates are used. The majority of participants do not perform confirmatory tests, but those performed include Nagler, nitrate and gelatin reactions, crossley milk, sensitivity to metronidazole, and commercial kits, such as API 20 A.

Aeromonas are straight Gram-negative rods with rounded ends, sometimes approaching a spherical shape. They occur singularly, in pairs or in short chains and are usually motile by a single polar flagellum. They are facultative anaerobes with both a respiratory and fermentative type of metabolism. The optimal growth temperature is 22 to 28°C, but most species grow well at 37°C. They are oxidase positive and catalase positive. Aeromonas species occur in fresh water and sewage. Some species are pathogenic to frogs, fish and humans. Human disease usually manifests itself as diarrhoea or bacteremia. Test Details Vibrio species are Gram-negative curved motile rods. They are usually found in aquatic habitats with a wide range of salinities, as sodium ions stimulate growth. Due to their presence in marine environments, they are commonly isolated from the surfaces and the intestinal contents of marine animals. There are eight species of Vibrio that are pathogenic and have been shown to be associated with food. The most notable human pathogens are Vibrio cholera, which causes cholera, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, which causes food poisoning and Vibrio vulnificus, which causes a highly fatal septicaemia. Vibrio species may also cause wound infections, diarrhoea and a variety of other infections. Method Summary Methods commonly used usually involve enrichment in a selective or non-selective broth, such as salt polymixin broth or buffered peptone water, then streaking onto selective agars, such as TCBS vibrio agar, TSAT agar, or chromogenic agar. Confirmation techniques include gram staining, oxidase, API tests, and 0129 sensitivity.

Although useful, they do have limitations. For example, micro-organisms may be present but not grow on the media used, or may cluster together to give inaccurate estimates of the overall count. It is, therefore, important that results are interpreted with care. A single test result taken in isolation is fairly meaningless, and products must therefore be regularly tested to ascertain the usual microbial flora, and to monitor changes. Method Summary The majority of participants use a pour plate method with plate count agar and incubation at 30°C, for 48 to 72 hours. Alternative methods used include; spread plates, spiral plating and Petrifilm. Milk count agar, tryptone soya agar, and MacConkey agar are also commonly used.

The organism produces typical colonies on selective agars, and is indole positive at 37 and 44°C. Result Observations Laboratories MC0816 and MC2346 incorrectly reported Escherichia coli as ‘Not Detected’ for the food test material, yet reported performing confirmatory tests. They may wish to investigate the significance of this internally. Only 72% of participants gained a satisfactory z-score for the dairy test material. This appears to be due to multiple questionable or unsatisfactory results being submitted by a small number of laboratories. Test Details Escherichia coli is found in human and animal intestines, and, therefore, the presence of the organism in foods is thought to indicate faecal contamination. It is historically used as an 'indicator' organism, to indicate whether more serious pathogens, such as Salmonella are also likely to be present. However, this organism is also widespread throughout the environment, being isolated from air, soils, water, plants, and animals. Therefore, the presence of Escherichia coli in foods may be faecal or environmental in origin. Members of the genus Escherichia are Gram-negative rods belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae. They ferment lactose with the production of acid and gas, and possess both β-galactosidase and β-glucuronidase enzymes. Method Summary Participants use a wide range of methods for the detection and enumeration of Escherichia coli. Methods included chromogenic media, enrichment methods, violet red bile agar, most probable number methods, and membrane methods with tryptone bile agar. Incubation temperatures of 37 and 44°C for 24 or 48 hours have been reported. Confirmation tests used for further identification include indole production, gas production in brilliant green bile broth, Microbact test kit, and API 20 E.

Result Observations Laboratory MC0456 reported a result of <10 cfu/g for the enumeration of coliforms for the food test material, yet reported the use of confirmatory tests. They may wish to investigate the significance of this internally. Only 78% of participants gained a satisfactory z-score for the dairy test material. This appears to be due to multiple questionable and unsatisfactory results being submitted by a small number of laboratories. Test Details Coliforms are found in human and animal intestines, and their presence in foods is used as an indicator of faecal contamination. However, many coliforms are also found throughout the environment, being isolated from air, soil, water, plants, and animals. The presence of coliform indicator organisms in foods may, therefore, be indicative of faecal contamination, but may also be environmental in origin. The definition of a ‘coliform’ is open to interpretation. For the purpose of allocating assigned values and z-scores, LGC Standards uses the definition of a coliform to be ‘bacteria which at 30°C form characteristic colonies and which can ferment lactose with the production of acid and gas’ (International IDF standard 73A: 1985). This includes the genera Escherichia, Citrobacter, Klebsiella, and Enterobacter. There are many other definitions of a coliform, and this interpretation is by no means the definitive classification. Therefore, participants should assess their coliform results according to their own criteria for classifying this group of organisms. Method Summary The most common method used for coliform enumeration by participants is the use of pour plates with violet red bile agar incubated at 30 to 37°C for 24 hours. Other methods include chromogenic agars, MacConkey agar, impedance testing, most probable number, Petrifilm, and spiral plating. The majority of participants do not perform confirmatory tests, relying on colony morphology on selective agars. However, confirmatory tests used by participants include; IMViC tests, tests to detect the production of acid and gas from lactose, such as brilliant green bile broth and similar broths, Gram-staining, oxidase, and API tests.

The organism produces typical colonies on selective agars, and is indole positive at 37 and 44°C. Result Observations Only 76% of participants gained a satisfactory z-score for the enumeration of Enterobacteriaceae for the dairy test material. This appears to be due to multiple results being submitted by a small number of laboratories. Test Details Members of the Enterobacteriaceae family are distributed world wide and found in soil, water, fruits, vegetables, grains, flowering plants, and a wide range of animals, from insects to humans. They are Gram-negative, oxidase negative rods. A number of species of the family cause diarrhoeal diseases and some are opportunistic pathogens causing a variety of extra-intestinal infections including bacteraemia, meningitis, urinary tract, respiratory and wound infections. Enterobacteriaceae are responsible for about 50% of nosocomial (hospital-acquired) infections. Method Summary Methods for the enumeration of Enterobacteriaceae are much more consistent than methods for coliforms. The vast majority of participants use pour plates with violet red bile glucose agar, and incubation at 30 or 37°C for 24 hours. Other methods include the use of Petrifilm, most probable number and chromogenic agars. The majority of participants use colony morphology on selective agars as identification of Enterobacteriaceae. However, confirmatory tests performed by participants include oxidase, glucose tests, Gram-staining, and commercial kits, such as API 20 E and Enterotube II. Page 112 Coagulase positive Staphylococci Test Material 17F146 Test Material Data Test Material Contents Staphylococcus aureus Bacillus cereus Number of results Arithmetic Mean Robust Mean (Median) Actual Standard deviation Target Standard deviation Assigned Value Z-Scores Within ± 2 (satisfactory) Z-Scores >±2 and <±3 (questionable) Reported Present 547 1,356 cfu/g 1,500 cfu/g 0.26 log10 0.35 log10 1,500 cfu/g 97 % 1% 99 % Organism Details The strain of Staphylococcus aureus present in the test material is a reference strain, known as the Oxford strain, and is typical of the species, being coagulase and DNase-positive, although the coagulase reaction may be weaker than usual. The organism produces characteristic colonies on selective agars. Test Details The most significant food borne coagulase positive staphylococcus is Staphylococcus aureus. However there are other coagulase positive staphylococci including Staphylococcus intermedius, Staphylococcus hyicus, Staphylococcus delphini, and Staphylococcus schleiferi. These strains are rarely isolated from food. However, the occurrence of Staphylococcus intermedius in food remains unclear because routine laboratory analysis does not discriminate between Staphylococcus intermedius and Staphylococcus aureus. Both species share many phenotypic characteristics. In both species, some strains can produce enterotoxin and therefore can be the cause of food poisoning outbreaks. Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive cocci, and is coagulase, catalase, and DNase positive. Staphylococcus aureus can be present on the skin, and in the nose and throat of healthy individuals with no ill effect. It is important in foods both as an indicator of general hygiene, and as a causative agent of food poisoning. The organism is found in ham, salads, fish, poultry, and sauces, and is able to tolerate and grow in foods with a high salt content. Food poisoning caused by Staphylococcus aureus is due to the production of an enterotoxin when the organism is able to grow in high numbers in food. Subsequent heating of the food may destroy the viable Staphylococcus aureus cells, but the enterotoxin remains. Testing a food suspected of causing food poisoning for micro-organisms alone would not indicate the cause of the problem. Fortunately, methods are available for the detection of Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin. Method Summary The majority of participants use Baird Parker spread-plates, with incubation at 37°C for 48 hours. Typical Staphylococcus aureus colonies on this agar are grey to jet-black, shiny, smooth, convex, 1 to 3mm in diameter, with a narrow white margin, and an opaque zone of clearing. Many participants also perform confirmatory tests, including; catalase, coagulase, and DNase. API systems and commercial latex agglutination kits are also used.

Colonies on selective agar are characteristic, being large, irregular and producing large zones of egg-yolk precipitation. Test Details Bacillus is a large genus of Gram-positive bacilli that are aerobic, facultatively anaerobic, and catalase positive. Bacillus species are widespread in the environment and are able to survive in adverse conditions due to the formation of endospores. They are able to survive in heat-processed and dried foods. Many species are normally present in soil and decaying animal and vegetable matter. Cells of Bacillus species are large and commonly adhere in chains. In foodstuffs, Bacillus cereus is both a spoilage organism and a causative agent of food poisoning. The organism is commonly found in a range of foods, including rice, eggs, bread, meat, milk and other dairy products. Food poisoning symptoms are caused by ingestion of a heat-stable enterotoxin, which is formed if the organism is allowed to proliferate in food prior to cooking. Bacteraemia and pneumonia associated with Bacillus cereus have been reported. Method Summary The majority of participants use spread plates on selective agars such as Bacillus cereus (PEMBA) agar or mannitol egg yolk polymyxin agar. Incubation is commonly for 24 hours at 37°C followed by 24 hours at room temperature, to encourage the characteristic coloration of the colonies. Confirmatory tests are not usually carried out, with participants relying on their ability to recognise the morphology of the organism on selective agar. Confirmatory tests that are performed include biochemical tests, Gram-stains, spore stains, and API profiles.

The organism produces typical colonies on selective agars, and is indole positive at 37 and 44°C. Klebsiella oxytoca is a member of the Enterobacteriaceae family and also the coliform group of indicator organisms. Klebsiella species are commonly found in human faeces, soil, water, fruit, vegetables and grains. They have not been implicated as a causative organism of food poisoning but can be opportunistic pathogens. Colonies are typically large and mucoid and grow rapidly, within 18-24 hours. The strain present in the test material is a Gram-negative rod, H2S negative and catalase positive. Result Observations Laboratory MC1419 reported a result of <10 cfu/g for thermotolerant coliforms yet gained a satisfactory z-score for the enumeration of Escherichia coli. As this organism is a thermotolerant coliform, this participant may wish to investigate the significance of this internally. Test Details The definition of a ‘thermotolerant coliform’ is open to interpretation. For the purpose of allocating assigned values and z-scores, LGC Standards uses the definition of a thermotolerant coliform to be ‘a coliform which grows and ferments lactose at 44°C’. There are many other definitions of a thermotolerant coliform, and this definition is by no means the definitive classification. Therefore participants should assess their results for this test parameter according to their own criteria for classifying this group of organisms. Method Summary The most common methods used for thermotolerant coliform enumeration by participants are the use of pour plates with violet red bile agar, and Petrifilm incubated at 44°C for 24 hours. The majority of participants do not perform confirmatory tests, relying on colony morphology on selective agars. Page 116 Escherichia coli O157 Test Material 22D146 Test Material Data Test Material Contents Escherichia coli O157 Escherichia coli O157 non-toxigenic @ 3,400 cfu/g 139 Detected 95 % Number of results Intended Result Reported Correct Result Organism Details The strain of Escherichia coli O157 included in the test material is non-toxigenic with a serotype of O157:H7. The organism has been genetically engineered and because verotoxin production is phage mediated there is no possibility of the strain undergoing a spontaneous mutation to revert to a toxigenic form. It produces typical colonies on selective agars, stains Gram-negative and is oxidase negative. Test Details Escherichia coli belongs to the Enterobacteriaceae family and the coliform group of indicator organisms. Cells of this organism are typically Gram-negative rods that are motile, oxidase negative, produce gas from lactose at 37 and 44°C, possess the enzyme β-glucuronidase and produce indole from tryptophan at 44°C. Some strains of Escherichia coli O157, in contrast, do not grow at 44°C and do not possess the β-glucuronidase enzyme, so their presence may not be detected on chromogenic agars and in standard laboratory isolation procedures. Differentiation of Escherichia coli O157 from most other strains of Escherichia coli can usually be achieved using sorbitol MacConkey agar, as most strains of Escherichia coli O157 do not ferment sorbitol. There are also commercially available kits for confirmation of suspect colonies, including latex agglutination kits. Escherichia coli O157 is an example of a new emerging pathogen that was only recognised as causing disease in the early 1980s. The organism is killed by heat. Therefore, adequately cooked foods should not contain Escherichia coli O157. Most outbreaks have been traced to undercooked meat products, dairy products containing unpasteurised or inadequately pasteurised milk, and poor hygiene practices, particularly in premises selling cooked and raw meats. In the USA, several cases have been linked to inadequately cooked burgers, particularly those cooked on barbecues. There are a number of serotypes of enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) but O157:H7 is the one most commonly isolated from humans. Food specifications stipulate that Escherichia coli O157 must be absent from 25g food samples. Method Summary The most popular methods used include enrichment in a variety of broths, including EE broth, MTSB, and buffered peptone water, followed by plating onto differential or selective agars, most frequently sorbitol MacConkey. Commonly used confirmatory tests included latex agglutination.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a yeast which commonly occurs on foods, but does not usually cause spoilage. Varieties of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are used in bread-making, brewing, and wine and cider production. It is found in the environment on leaves and fruits, and is most commonly isolated from soft drinks, fruit and fruit juices and dairy products. The strain included in the test material was formerly known as Saccharomyces diastaticus. Test Details Fungi, including yeast and moulds, are ubiquitous throughout the environment, being found in air, water, soils, animals and foods. They can survive adverse conditions by the production of spores. Visible mould growth can often be seen on foods, such as bread and vegetables, and in the environment, such as in bathrooms and air conditioning units. Many fungi are saprophytes, causing spoilage of foods and other commodities. Some may be plant pathogens, and others are recognised causes of human disease. Yeasts are simply fungi whose main growth form is unicellular and which usually replicate by budding. Many yeasts can also grow in the hyphal form, and some moulds can be yeast-like. The distinction between a yeast and a mould can, therefore, be difficult. Method Summary The most common used method for the enumeration of fungi is spread plates, closely followed by pour plates and Petrifilm. Agars commonly used include; rose Bengal chloramphenicol agar, malt extract agar, yeast extract chloramphenicol agar, yeast glucose chloramphenicol agar, oxytetracycline glucose yeast extract agar, potato dextrose, yeast extract dextrose chloramphenicol, and DG18.

As its name suggests, Pseudomonas fluorescens produces the pigment fluorescin. The organism is responsible for food spoilage, particularly of milk and meat products. It is not normally pathogenic, but can cause opportunistic infections, particularly in burns and cystic fibrosis patients. The strain of Pseudomonas fluorescens present in the test material is a type strain that was originally isolated from a pre-filter water tank. Result Observations Participants gaining unsatisfactory z-scores for this test parameter have reported the use of methods similar to that of other participants achieving satisfactory z-scores. It has been noted that some participants are using methods which have incubation temperatures above the usual 6.5°C. The international standard; ISO 17410: 2001 ‘Microbiology of food and animal feeding stuffs – Horizontal method for the enumeration of psychrotrophic microorganisms’ states that incubation conditions of 6.5°C for 10 days should be used. While this has not caused any issues for this test material as Pseudomonas fluorscens will grow at these higher temperatures, if the test material to be analysed contained a strict psychrotroph they may obtain false negative results. Test Details Because of their growth at low temperatures, psychrotrophs are responsible for the deterioration of chilled and inadequately stored frozen foods. Foods that may be affected include milk, and the International Dairy Federation specifies in the criteria for pasteurised milk that at point of sale, milk should have a psychrotrophic count of <105 cfu ml-1. Other foods that may be spoiled by psychrotrophic organisms include meat, poultry, fish, eggs, fruits and vegetables and any other food product that is stored at refrigerated temperatures. Many psychrotrophs are able to metabolise amino acids into biogenic amines and produce slime and other features characteristic of food spoilage. Their enumeration is important to anyone concerned with the quality of chilled foods. Significant numbers indicate that a food is approaching the end of its shelf life, and may indicate storage problems, improper-handling, and the use of poor quality ingredients. In addition to quality, safety is also an issue with chilled foods, for the pathogens Listeria monocytogenes and Yersinia species are psychrotrophic. Method Summary The majority of participants use a pour plate method with plate count agar, incubating at 2 to 8°C.

As its name suggests, Pseudomonas fluorescens produces the pigment fluorescin. The organism is responsible for food spoilage, particularly of milk and meat products. It is not normally pathogenic, but can cause opportunistic infections, particularly in burns and cystic fibrosis patients. The strain of Pseudomonas fluorescens present in the test material is a type strain that was originally isolated from a pre-filter water tank. Test Details Pseudomonads are Gram-negative, motile, non-sporing rods. They are catalase and oxidase positive and utilise glucose oxidatively. Pseudomonas species are widespread in the soil, and their ability to reduce nitrate makes them an important part of the nitrogen cycle. They are also found in water, sewage, on plants, on animals and in food. They are also a predominant organism in biofilms. Their widespread occurrence is due to their metabolic diversity. Pseudomonas species can be psychrotrophic and are commonly found in raw milk stored at, or below, 7°C. They are common spoilage organisms in a variety of foods, especially bacon, fish and meats. Method Summary Methods commonly used include spread plating onto agars selective for pseudomonads, with incubation at 25°C for up to 5 days. Isolation is usually followed by simple confirmatory tests, such as the oxidase test. API 20 NE systems are also used for full identification.

In order for scores to be meaningful, the standard deviation for proficiency assessment needs to be ‘fit-for-purpose’ for the industry. If the target standard deviation (σ) used to calculate z-scores is unrealistically small, then participants may obtain an unsatisfactory score which is unrelated to poor performance. Conversely, if σ is unrealistically large, all participants would gain satisfactory scores and poor performance would not be identified. It is always possible to improve the precision of an analytical method, for example, by repeating tests many times, by testing higher volumes, etc. However, if such increased precision is not necessary or relevant then it is a waste of time, effort and money. For QMS, the value of σ has been carefully considered to ensure such ‘fitness-for-purpose’. Taking into account historical data, reproducibility limits from ISO standards (where available) and experience, the value of σ for all test materials in QMS is 0.35, unless otherwise stated. The only exceptions are for all parameters on test materials QM11 and mesophilic anaerobic spores on QM15, where the value for σ will be 0.50, due to the larger variation of results shown in both participant results and internal quality control tests. Results are quantified in the comments section according to the following criteria: Excellent : Very good : Good : Satisfactory : Poor : 90 –100% of participants reporting a satisfactory result. 80 – 89% of participants reporting a satisfactory result. 70 – 79% of participants reporting a satisfactory result. 50 – 69% of participants reporting a satisfactory result. 0 – 49% of participants reporting a satisfactory result. Page 122 APPENDIX III – QUALITY CONTROL Quality control tests on QMS test materials consist of homogeneity, direct tests for the target parameters and stability tests. Complete homogeneity can only be achieved in a true solution. Micro-organisms have a tendency to clump, to attach to surfaces and each other, and to grow, die and move around. Micro-organisms distributed throughout a food sample can never therefore be fully homogenous. All QMS test materials are prepared in a way to keep such sample variation to a minimum. All materials are also tested to ensure that the degree of variation within each sample batch is within defined criteria. Sample variation should therefore have a negligible effect on participant performance scores. Homogeneity tests are carried out on every batch of test material, before packing and after samples have been weighed into individual units. A selected number of samples from each test material batch is chosen randomly and tested in duplicate (where possible). In detection homogeneity tests, 100% of samples tested must generate the expected result, based on the known formulation of the test material. Results are given in the table below. In enumeration homogeneity tests, the standard deviation (log10) of the samples tested must not exceed σall = 0.3σp. Results ± the standard deviation are given in the table below. Additional quality control tests are carried out directly on the target parameters. Results from these tests are given in the table below.
