Rapid detection and isolation of mycoplasmas from cell cultures

Rapid detection and isolation of mycoplasmas from cell cultures

G A Tomkins et al. Aust J Exp Biol Med Sci. 1975 Aug.

Abstract

An improved medium for the isolation of Mycoplasma species from contaminated cell cultures is reported. A modification of the mycoplasma detection method using the uridine/uracil uptake ratio method is described. Results obtained using this method with mycoplasma contaminated cell cultures and with contaminated cell cultures treated with the antibiotic Lincomycin are presented.
