Abstract
Five laboratory-adapted strains of Ureaplasma urealyticum showed comparable colony counts when incubated in eight gaseous environments including air, in different concentrations of carbon dioxide, and under anaerobiosis. For primary isolation on genital mycoplasma agar 95% N2-5% CO2 gave 100% correlation with growth in bromothymol blue broth, whereas certain strains failed to grow on agar incubated in air, the TABCO2 system (Lab-Tek Division, Miles Laboratories, Ltd., Rexdale, Canada), 100% CO2, or under anaerobiosis.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
