An Improved Medium for the Cultivation of Hemolytic Streptococcus

Abstract: In the preceding paper (Bernheimer and Pappenheimer, 1942) the factors necessary for massive growth of group A hemolytic streptococcus on a medium of essentially defined chemical composition were discussed. The medium has been adapted for heavy growth in large volumes. Although worked out specifically for the C203S strain, the medium has proved useful for the cultivation of other strains of group A streptococcus. The following solutions are prepared: Solution I: 10 liters of distilled water (Note 1), 7.5 grams… Show more

“…They noted difficulty in the subculture of certain strains on this medium. Badger (1944) also found the medium of Rane and Subbarow to be inadequate for several strains of pneumococcus, and in investigating the nutritional requirements of a strain of pneumococcus type III developed a medium similar to that of Bohonos and Subbarow and similar in most respects to media developed for the cultivation of group A hemolytic streptococci by Bernheimer et al (1942) and by Woolley (1941).…”

“…All of these media for pneumococcus contain a reducing agent such as ascorbic acid (Badger, 1944), or thioglycollic acid (Bernheimer et at., 1942), in accordance with the findings of Dubos (1929) that a lowered redox potential is essential for 42ARK I1.
