Animal feeding stuffs: Methods of sampling and analysis - Detection and enumeration of Saccharomyces cerevisiae used as feed additive
This document specifies general rules for the enumeration of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in feeding stuffs (additives, premixtures and compound feeds excluding mineral feeds) that contain Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a single microorganism component or in a mixture with other microorganisms. Applying the method to premixtures and compound feeds with critical amounts of copper demands a special procedure (see Annex A). The document is not applicable to mineral feeds, which are defined as complementary feeding stuffs composed mainly of minerals and containing at least 40 % crude ash (Regulation (EC) 767/2009) [3].
There are different categories of feed samples:
a) Additives containing about 1010 colony forming units (CFU)/g;
b) Premixtures containing about 1011 CFU/kg;
c) Compound feeds, meal or pellets which contain about 109 CFU/kg.
Futtermittel: Probenahme- und Untersuchungs-verfahren - Nachweis und Zählung von Saccharomyces cerevisiae als Futtermittelzusatzstoff
Dieses Dokument legt allgemeine Regeln für die Zählung von Saccharomyces cerevisiae in Futtermitteln (Zusatzstoffe, Vormischungen und Mischfuttermittel mit Ausnahme von mineralischen Futtermitteln) fest, die Saccharomyces cerevisiae als einzelnen mikrobiellen Bestandteil oder in einem Gemisch mit anderen Mikroorganismen enthalten. Die Anwendung des Verfahrens auf Vormischungen und Mischfuttermittel mit kritischen Kupfermengen erfordert ein besonderes Vorgehen (siehe Anhang A). Dieses Dokument ist nicht anwendbar auf mineralische Futtermittel, die als Ergänzungsfuttermittel definiert sind, die hauptsächlich aus Mineralstoffen zusammengesetzt sind und mindestens 40 % Rohasche enthalten (Verordnung (EG) Nr. 767/2009) [3].
Es gibt unterschiedliche Kategorien von Futtermittelproben:
a) Zusatzstoffe, die etwa 1010 koloniebildende Einheiten (KbE/g) enthalten;
b) Vormischungen, die etwa 1011 KbE/kg enthalten;
c) Mischfuttermittel, Mehle oder Pellets, die etwa 109 KbE/kg enthalten.
Aliments des animaux: Méthodes d’échantillonnage et d’analyse - Détection et dénombrement des souches de Saccharomyces cerevisiae utilisées comme additifs pour l’alimentation animale
Le présent document spécifie des règles générales pour le dénombrement de Saccharomyces cerevisiae présents dans les aliments pour animaux (additifs, prémélanges et aliments composés, à l’exception des aliments minéraux) qui contiennent des Saccharomyces cerevisiae comme seul micro-organisme constitutif ou en mélange avec d’autres micro-organismes. L’application de la méthode aux prémélanges et aux aliments composés pour animaux présentant une teneur critique en cuivre nécessite de mettre en œuvre un mode opératoire spécial (voir Annexe A). Le présent document ne s’applique pas aux aliments minéraux, qui se définissent comme des aliments complémentaires constitués principalement de minéraux et contenant au moins 40 % de cendre brute (Règlement (CE) 767/2009) [3].
Il existe différentes catégories d’échantillons d’aliments pour animaux :
a) les additifs contenant environ 1010 UFC/g (UFC : unités formant colonie) ;
b) les prémélanges contenant environ 1011 UFC/kg ;
c) les aliments composés, farines ou granulés contenant environ 109 UFC/kg.
Krma: metode vzorčenja in analize - Določanje in štetje Saccharomyces cerevisiae, uporabljenih kot krmni dodatek
Ta evropski standard določa splošna pravila za štetje probiotičnih kvasovk (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) v vzorcih krme (dodatki, premiksi in krma), ki vsebujejo kvasovke kot eno komponento mikroorganizma ali v kombinaciji z drugimi mikroorganizmi. Uporaba metode za krmo z visoko vsebnostjo bakra (> 400 mg/kg) zahteva poseben postopek (glej dodatek B). Ta standard se ne uporablja za mineralno krmo, ki je opredeljena kot dopolnilna krma, sestavljena predvsem iz mineralov, in vsebuje najmanj 40 % surovega pepela (Direktiva Sveta 79/373/EGS).
Obstajajo različne kategorije vzorcev krme:
a) dodatki, ki vsebujejo približno od 10+9 CFU/g do 10+10 CFU/g (CFU = enote, ki tvorijo kolonije);
b) premiksi, ki vsebujejo približno 10+8 CFU/g;
c) krma, moka ali peleti, ki vsebujejo približno 10+6 CFU/g ter vključujejo popolno krmo in mlečne nadomestke.
Meja zaznavanja je opredeljena v standardu EN ISO 7218.

Introduction
This methodology has been developed to enumerate yeasts (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) used as feed
additives to enable the European Commission to control proper labelling of animal feeding products. It
was compiled first during the EU project SMT4-CT98-2235 “Methods for the official control of probiotics
used as feed additives” [1].
The procedure has been validated for one commercially used Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain [2]. As the
method is not selective for this particular Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain, it can be assumed, that it can
also be applied to enumerate other Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains in their respective dosage form in
feed provided that the added yeast is present in far higher numbers than any other yeast.
The method has not been validated for other yeast species (e.g. Kluyveromyces marxianus).
This method is not applicable for the detection of any ubiquitous or pathogenic yeasts in food and animal
feeding stuffs.
1 Scope
This document specifies general rules for the enumeration of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in feeding stuffs
(additives, premixtures and compound feeds excluding mineral feeds) that contain Saccharomyces
cerevisiae as a single microorganism component or in a mixture with other microorganisms. Applying the
method to premixtures and compound feeds with critical amounts of copper demands a special
procedure (see Annex A). The document is not applicable to mineral feeds, which are defined as
complementary feeding stuffs composed mainly of minerals and containing at least 40 % crude ash
(Regulation (EC) 767/2009) [3].
There are different categories of feed samples:
a) Additives containing about 10 colony forming units (CFU)/g;
b) Premixtures containing about 10 CFU/kg;
c) Compound feeds, meal or pellets which contain about 10 CFU/kg.

4 Principle
— Preparation of sterile and dry poured agar plates or preparation of sterile liquid culture medium
tempered at 44 °C to 47 °C;
— Drawing a representative test sample under aseptic conditions;
— Preparation of the initial suspension with a tempered diluent to obtain a homogeneous distribution
of bacterial cells from the test portion;
— Preparation of further decimal dilutions of the initial suspension in order to reduce the number of
microorganisms per unit volume to allow, after incubation, the counting of colonies;
— Inoculation of prepared poured plates with an aliquot of the optimum dilutions and dispersion of the
inoculum using a sterile spreader or inoculation of blank plates with an aliquot of the optimum
dilutions and pouring of the molten agar medium into each plate, mixing and solidification;
— Incubation of inverted plates for 48 h to 72 h at 30 °C ± 1 °C under aerobic conditions;
— Counting of typical colonies, considering the specific properties of Saccharomyces cerevisiae;
