【 要旨 】 透析液の微生物汚染管理は重要であり,その監視には平板塗沫法などの細菌培養法が用いられる.現在,透析液の培養に用いる培地は従属栄養細菌 (グラム陰性菌) の検出に適したReasoner's No.2 Agar (R2A) やTryptone Glucose Extract Agar (TGEA) 培地の使用が推奨されている.平板塗沫法の手技は,検体1 mlをシャーレに注入し,培養温度15 - 25 °Cで7日間保存する.その後,培養により形成されるコロニーを目視にて計数する.平板塗沫法は手技が簡便で,細菌検出を行う第一選択として有用である.

[ Summary ] Microbiological surveillance of hemodialysis fluids is very important in relation to strategies for bacterial contamination of dialysate distribution systems. The common microbiological culturing method uses petridishes with a layer of agar. A spread plate count is one basic method to produce microbiological cultures.
Moreover, Resoner's No. 2 Agar (R2A) and Tryptone Glucose Extract Agar (TGEA) are the recommended mediums for heterotrophic bacteria cultures in dialysates. A spread plate count technique is to sample 1 ml spread over the surface of a petridish with an agar medium.
After 7 days of incubation at between 15-25 °C the numbers of colonies were quantified.
Anyone can easily perform spread plate counts. They are the first choice for investigation of hemodialysis fluids.
