Detection of Salmonella in onion and garlic powders: collaborative study.

The relative efficiency of trypticase soy broth with added 0.5% K2SO3 and lactose broth as pre-enrichment media for recovering Salmonella from onion powder and garlic powder was collaboratively studied. For each spice, 13 collaborators each received 5 duplicate samples; 4 of the 5 replicate samples were inoculated with 1 of 4 levels of S. thompson ranging, at initiation of analysis, from greater than 3 to 93 organisms/g onion powder and greater than 3 to 43 organisms/g garlic powder. Salmonella growth was inhibited in each of these spices as evidenced by a rapid decline of most probable number values in samples determined immediately after and 7 days following inoculation. Collaborative results of cultural analyses demonstrated superiority of the modified tripticase soy broth for recovering Salmonella in each of the 2 spices. The improved method of detecting Salmonella in onion and garlic powders has been adopted as official first action.

Mineral oil extraction of light filth from rubbed sage: collaborative study.

The official methods for extracting light filth from rubbed sage, 44.D08--44.D10, specifies a hot isopropanol pretreatment and flotation from cooled dilute isopropanol with mineral oil to extract light filth. The method gives good recoveries, but occasionally excessive interfering plant material is extracted along with the filth elements. A new method has been developed in which chloroform is used for pretreatment instead of isopropanol, and Tween 80-EDTA is added twice rather than once. This method has given consistently cleaner filter papers and better recoveries for rodent hairs, 85 vs. 79%, and for elytral squares, 95 vs. 84%. The new method has been adopted as official first action.

New brine saturation technique for the extraction of light filth from rubbed sage, paprika, and corn meal: intralaboratory study.

A new and widely applicable technique for the isolation of light filth from food has been developed. It includes a simple alcohol defatting followed by a brine saturation of the product by heating and cooling and a subsequent trapping of the filth elements with olive oil and tap water. The methods circumvent the use of hazardous and expensive solvents and lengthy defatting and/or pre-treatment procedures. In an intralaboratory study, recoveries of elytral squares and rodent hair fragments added to paprika, rubbed sage, and corn meal ranged from 95.8 to 100%.
