Recent work from our laboratory revealed that tryptic soy broth (TSB) was a superior enrichment medium for use in test-and-hold Escherichia coli O157:H7 methods at levels down to a ratio of three volumes of medium to one volume of sample. Lower ratios were examined for their effect on results obtained from culture isolation, the BAX E. coli O157:H7 MP assay, and the Assurance GDS E. coli O157:H7 assay. Ground beef and boneless beef trim were inoculated with a high level (170 CFU/65 g of ground beef and 43 CFU/65 g of trim) and a low level (17 CFU/65 g of ground beef and 4 CFU/65 g of trim) of E. coli O157:H7 and enriched in 3, 1, 0.5, and 0 volumes of TSB. The volume of TSB used did not affect E. coli O157:H7 detection by culture isolation, Assurance GDS detection in ground beef or trim, or the BAX MP assay detection in ground beef. However, BAX MP assay detection of E. coli O157:H7 in beef trim was 50, 42, and 33% positive when enrichment volumes of 0.5x, 1x, and 3x, respectively, were used. Optimum results with all methods were obtained using 1 volume of TSB. We concluded that detection test results can be considered valid as long as enrichment medium is used, even when it is less than the specified 3 or 10 volumes.
