English

Subject field(s)
  • Horticulture
  • Plant and Crop Production
CONT

Culturomics from field-grown crop plants using dilution-to-extinction, two-step library preparation and amplicon sequencing. Culturomics approaches have advanced microbial research by enabling the high-throughput isolation and characterization of a broader range of bacterial taxa, including some previously considered unculturable. Here, we present the testing and optimization of a protocol for isolating and identifying hundreds of cultivable microbes from field-grown plants.

OBS

As opposed to garden and greenhouse crops, not to be confused with "field crop".

Record 3 2011-02-23

English

Subject field(s)
  • Medical and Surgical Equipment
CONT

Load control is the process by which a load is monitored and released based on the result of a BI [biological indicator] ... Biological indicators are the only sterilization process monitoring devices that provide a direct measure of the lethality of the process.

CONT

Trust your BI [biological indicator] for load control : Only a BI can detect actual killing of microbial spores inside a sterilizer. This is why load control remains the most reliable level of testing...

French

Domaine(s)
  • Équipement médico-chirurgical
CONT

[...] le contrôle de la charge en sortie du stérilisateur [fait] partie de la procédure de libération de la charge.

CONT

Contrôle de la charge. Des indicateurs chimiques sont utilisés dans ou sur chaque type de charge pour contrôler le processus de stérilisation. Ceci permet à l'utilisateur de constater si les paramètres importants du processus ont été aussi efficaces sur la charge.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Security
  • CBRNE Operations
CONT

Point detection refers to testing a sample that has been taken directly from the environment suspected of harboring the target agent. Needs in this regard include not only investigation of suspected sources of contamination but also monitoring the air/water systems in buildings for general pathogen contamination or contamination by specific biological agents. In point detection as in stand-off detection, many situations will demand neither exceptional sensitivity nor exceptional specificity. Assessment of the total microbial content may be sufficient to determine contamination and alert personnel to danger.
