Other information:

Microbiology division at EFRAC undertakes quality inspection and analysis for industries associated with raw and processed food, water and allied Industries. The lab is well-equipped, with state-of-the-art facilities and experienced scientists. The lab provides the following services.

Thrust Areas:

Product Quality Inspection and Verification
Projects
Consultancy
Training
Research & Development

Basic Microbiological Analysis:

Detection of Pathogens
Enumeration of Spoilage Micro-Flora
Bacterial Enterotoxins
Disinfection Efficacy
Preservative Efficacy
Sterility Testing and Bio-Burden Analysis
Microbiological Monitoring of Indoor Air
Antimicrobial efficacy of water purification devices/filters

Detection of Pathogens

Escherichia coli
Escherichia coli O157
Vibrio cholera
Vibrio parahaemolyticus
Pathogenic streptococci
Staphylococcus aureus
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Legionella
Clostridium perfringens
Bacillus cereus
Salmonella
Shigella
Listeria monocytogenes

Enumeration of Spoilage Micro-Flora:

Microorganisms are ubiquitous in nature. Quality and shelf life of any product depends on presence, and nature of microorganisms contained in it. Under favourable conditions these micro organisms proliferate and result in loss of product quality. Microbiological monitoring is an essential part of quality control. EFRAC plays an important role in testing of spoilage micro flora.

Test Parameters

Standard Plate Count
Coliform / Faecal Coliforms
Psychrophilic and Thermophilic
Aerobic and Anaerobic Spore Formers
Rope Spore Count
Anaerobic Bacteria
Sulphite Reducing Bacteria
Sulphur and Iron Bacteria
Yeast and Moulds
Heat Resistant Mould
Proteolytic and Lipolytic Bacterial Count

Bacterial Enterotoxins

Bacteria produce Enterotoxins as a part of their metabolic activities. Some of them are heat-labile while others are heat stable in nature. Even severe food processing treatments cannot eradicate these toxicants and may result in food intoxication. EFRAC undertakes testing of the following Enterotoxins in food and food products by ELISA method.

Bacillus cereus Diarrheal Enterotoxins
Staphylococcal Enterotoxins

Sterility Testing

Sterility is a mandatory requirement for all injectables, ophthalmic preparations and surgical devices. Sterility test is conducted in accordance with various pharmacopoeias viz. IP, USP, BP etc. Following products are tested.

Parenteral Preparations (Injectables)
Non-parenteral Preparations (Ophthalmic)
Mechanical Contraceptives
Surgical Dressings and Devices
Vaccines

Monitoring Indoor Air

In addition to acceptance tests for the installation of clean rooms in production facilities, routine monitoring also plays a vital role. These measurements help monitor clean rooms as well as production facilities during operation. EFRAC offers a broad range of monitoring services for clean rooms, and can also provide customized hygiene-monitoring programs catering to your needs.

Services Include

Checking personal hygiene, determination of microbiological exposure on clothes and hands of production personnel
Testing the effectiveness of cleaning and disinfection measures during operation and at the end of production
Microbiological tests on individual process media (air, water, technical gases)
Determination of bacterial count in the air under all operating conditions
Testing surfaces, consumables and primary packaging
Microbiological qualification of production facilities after installation, reconstruction, standstill etc.
Cleaning validation

Anti Microbial Efficacy of water purification Devices/Filters

Filters that are used for water purification and are based on various technologies like UV-disinfection, ozonization, ion exchange, nanotechnology and membrane filtration. EFRAC has the facility to check its anti bacterial efficacy against a number of challenge organisms like E.coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio, Staphylococcus, Pseudomonas and Micrococcus luteus. Viricidal performance evaluation is done by Coliphage MS2 as per the US EPA guideline.

Preservative Efficacy
In pharmaceutical, herbal and cosmetic formulations, various anti-microbial substances are added to arrest microbial activity and extend shelf life of the products. The effectiveness of these substances is evaluated as per USP protocols. Selection of challenge micro-organisms includes gram positive and gram negative bacteria, spore formers, yeast and fungi.

Disinfection Efficacy
Phenolic and non-phenolic type of disinfectants are tested for their germicidal value as per national and international protocols.

Test Methods:
As per all national and international methods like FDA-BAM, APHA, BIS, ASTM, AOAC, Conventional Methods, Customer Specific Methods.
