  • Publication number: 20020042078
    Abstract: In a method for examining the sterility of in particular liquid media, such as pharmaceutical and/or medical preparations, the microorganisms which may be contained in the media are mechanically concentrated thereby forming a concentrate, and the free nucleic acids which may be in the concentrate are dissociated through the addition of at least one desoxyribonuclease (DNAse). The desoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and the ribonucleic acid (RNA) of the microorganisms which may be contained in the concentrate are then extracted, thereby simultaneously destroying the cell walls of the microorganisms and of the added DNAse. The DNA and preferably also the RNA are chromatographically isolated and the RNA is transcribed to cDNA through the addition of reverse transcriptase (revertase). The DNA is then concentrated using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) incorporating primers derived from highly-conserved regions and/or random primers and/or arbitrary primers, and the concentrated DNA is qualitatively evaluated.
