Overview

External ontology
TOGO:M2578 — Spiroplasma Medium
Applications
  • Microbial cultivation
pH range
{'min': 7.25, 'max': 7.45}
Notes
TOGO M2578 defines Spiroplasma Medium with a basal medium containing 500 ml DI Water, 15 g optional Agar, 10 g Tryptone, and 11 g PPLO Broth without crystal violet. Its additive solution supplies 170 ml heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum, 20 ml 0.1% Phenol red solution, 100 ml 2% TC Yeastolate, 200 ml DI Water, 5 g Glucose, 50 ml Mycoplasma Growth Supplement made from 98 g CMRL-1066 in 1.0 L water, and 35 ml Yeast Extract Solution made from 250 g baker's yeast in 1.0 L water. The basal medium is adjusted to pH 7.3-7.4, autoclaved at 121 C for 15 minutes, combined with the filter-sterilized additive solution, and readjusted if needed to pH 7.35 +/- 0.1.

Preparation

  1. Mix DI Water, Agar if required, Tryptone, and PPLO Broth without crystal violet as the basal medium.
  2. Adjust the basal medium to pH 7.3-7.4.
  3. Autoclave the basal medium at 121 C for 15 minutes, then cool to 50-55 C in a water bath if agar is used.
  4. Prepare the additive solution from heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum, Phenol red solution, TC Yeastolate, DI Water, Glucose, Mycoplasma Growth Supplement, and Yeast Extract Solution, then filter-sterilize it.
  5. Combine the filter-sterilized additive solution with the basal medium and, if needed, readjust the pH to 7.35 +/- 0.1.
