Improved Medium for Lactic Streptococci and Their Bacteriophages

Betty E. Terzaghi, W. E. Sandine · 1 Jun 1975

Incorporation of 1.9% beta-disodium glycerophosphate (GP) into a complex medium resulted in improved growth by lactic streptococci at 30 C. The medium, called M17, contained: Phytone peptone, 5.0 g; polypeptone, 5.0 g; yeast extract, 2.5 g; beef extract, 5.0 g; lactose, 5.0 g; ascorbic acid, 0.5 g; GP, 19.0 g; 1.0 M MgSO(4).7H(2)O, 1.0 ml;…

Simplified Approach to Identification of Aerobic Actinomycetes by Thin-Layer Chromatography

Joseph L. Staneck, Glenn D. Roberts · 1 Aug 1974

A system has been developed for the identification of aerobic actinomycetes in the clinical laboratory based on analysis of whole cells for diaminopimelic acid and carbohydrates and on the ability of the organism to decompose casein, tyrosine, and xanthine media. The whole-cell analyses were performed by a simple thin-layer chromatographic procedure that is described. Eighteen…

Human Fecal Flora: The Normal Flora of 20 Japanese-Hawaiians

William Moore, Lillian V. Holdeman · 1 May 1974

Quantitative and qualitative examination of the fecal flora of 20 clinically healthy Japanese-Hawaiian males was carried out by using anaerobic tube culture techniques. Cultural counts were 93% of the microscopic clump counts. Isolated colonies were selected in a randomized manner to give an unbiased sampling of the viable bacterial types. Each isolate was characterized for…
