Control of microbial growth
1. Control of
Microorganisms
(Dr.) Mirza Salman Baig
Assistant Professor (Pharmaceutics)
AIKTC, School of Pharmacy,New Panvel
Affiliated to University of Mumbai (INDIA)
3. Concepts
• Death of microbe= Loss of Ability to
reproduce
• Microorganism die at constant rate
over a period of time
• Exponential death
• It take same time to kill last 9 cells as
that for killing initial 900,000 cells
7. D - Value
• D-value refers to decimal
reduction time and is the time
required at a given condition (e.g.
temperature) to kill 90% (or 1 log) of
the exposed microorganisms.
• Thus after a colony is reduced by 1 D,
only 10% of the original organisms
remain
8. Z - Value
• The z-value is a measure of the
change of the D-value with varying
temperature
• Z - value is the number of degrees
the temperature has to be increased
to achieve a tenfold (i.e. 1 log10)
reduction in the D-value.
• Range is 10-15OC
9. Contd...
D-value gives the time needed at a
certain temperature to kill 90% of the
organisms,
Z-value relates the resistance of an
organism to differing temperatures
11. Mechanism of microbial cell
damage
• Microbial cell = Cell oranels in a
colloidal state sorrounded by cell
membrane and cell wall
• Damage to DNA, Ribosome, Enzyme
may lead to death of microbe
• Disruption of cell membrane or cell
wall
• Precipitation of proteins in cell
13. Definations
Sterilisation :
• It is a process by which an article, surface
or medium is made free of all
microorganisms either in vegetative or
spore form.
Disinfection :
• Destruction of all pathogens capable of
producing infections but not necessarily
spores.
• All organisms may not be killed but the
number is reduced to a level that is no
longer harmful to health.
14. Contd...
Antiseptics :
• Chemical disinfectants which can
safely applied to living tissues
and are used to prevent infection
by inhibiting the growth of
microorganisms.
Asepsis :
• Technique by which the occurrence
of infection (into an uninfected
tissue) is prevented.
15. Physical Methods
• High Temperature
– Moist heat (steam)
• Boiling water
• Autoclave
• Pasteurization (kill most cells but no sterlization)
– Dry Heat
• Incineration (Burning)
• Hot air oven
• Low Temperature (bacterio static, Inhibit
metabolism)
• Radiation
– Ionizing (Gamma ray, X-ray)
– Non ionizing (UV)
• Filteration
– Membrane filter
– HEPA filter
• Desiccation (bacterio static)
17. Moist heat
• More effective than dry heat
• Denaturation and coagulation of
protein
• Application - To sterlize culture
media, utensil, surgical instrument
• Autoclave can sterilize in 15 min at
121.5OC
19. Dry Heat
• Less effective than moist heat
sterilization
• Kill microbe by oxidation of cell
component
• Application - Sterilize glasswares
• Hot air oven can sterilize glassware
in 2hrs at 160-180OC
21. Ionizing Radiation
(cold sterilization)
• Ionizing radiation split water
molecule in hydroxil ion and proton
• Good penetration ability
• Economical
• Application - sterilize packaged food
and medical equipments
• X rays, Gamma rays
22. Non ionizing radiation
• Low penetration power compare to
ionizing radiation
• UV rays (295-400 nm) causes
damage to DNA
• Pyrimidine dimers are formed
because of UV exposure
• Application- to sterlize surface in
labs, aseptic rooms, kill microbe in
water.
23. Filteration Method
Steps
• Passage of solution through sterilize
bacteria proof filter
• Aseptic transfer of filterate to sterile
container
• Testing of sterility
24. Filteration Method
Types of Filters
• Asbestos Filter (Seitz filter) (0.01-5 micron)
• Sinterd glass filter (borosilicate glass
powder is partially fused for adhesion
and allowed to cool in a funnel)
• Filter Candels (ceramic/ made up of
porcelain or kieselguhr)
• Membrane Filter
26. Membrane Filters
• Thin 150 micron
• Pore size 0.2micron
• pores with uniform diameter
• they are disposible
• Application- sterilization of eyedrops,
seperation of virus from bacteria
28. HEPA filters
• High efficiency particulate air filters
• Consist cellulose acetate pleated
• It capture 99% of particulate matter
from air
• For aseptic rooms
• Filling room of parentrals
30. Desiccation
• Stop metabolic activity
• Neisseria meningitidis is susceptible
to desiccation
• In lyophilization microbes are quickly
dried at freezing temperature and
sealed in container under vacuum
• Application - preservation of high
sugar concentration product
(Jam) due to removal of water from
bacterial cell by osmosis
50. MOA
• The mechanism of antimicrobial
action of the two gases is assumed to
be through alkylations of sulphydryl,
amino, hydroxyl and carboxyl groups
on proteins and amino groups of
nucleic acids
67. Inactivation Factor
• It is the degree to which viable
population of organism is reduced by
treatment applied and it is obtained
by dividing initial viable count by
final viable count.
• IF=10t/D
• t= holding time for sterilization
• D= D value
69. Physical Indicators
1.Moist heat- Master processes record
(MPR) & Batch processes record
(BPR) comparision (pressure guage)
2.Dry heat- Temperature record
3.Radio sterilization- Plastic dosimeter
4.Gaseous method- Temperature,
Pressure, concentration and humidity
5.Filteration- Bubble point pressure
technique use for pore size
determination and integrity.
70. Chemical Indicators
1. Browne's tube- for heat processes,

substance with specific melting point
are used. Time required to move

make sure all air has removed from
autoclave and steam penetration is
rapid and even. All the bars on tape
