RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To validate the microbial limit tests of Shuanghuanglian oral liquid.METHODS:The recovery rates of 4 kinds of test organisms including E.coli treated by Shuanghuanglian oral liquid were detected by routine method,culture medium dilution method,and membrane-filter procedure respectively.RESULTS:Shuanghuanglian oral liquid was found to be of bacteriostatic action.The contamination of solution couldn't be detected by routine method.The recovery rate of the test organisms detected by membrane-filter procedure was higher than by culture medium dilution method,but the recovery rates in both methods were all up to the requirement.CONCLUSION:Membrane-filter procedure should be considered preferentially in performing microbial limit test for Shuanghuanglian oral liquid.
