Mycoplasma growth inhibition by arginine

Mycoplasma growth inhibition by arginine

L R Washburn et al. J Clin Microbiol. 1977 Mar.

Abstract

Arginine enhances the growth of nonfermenting mycoplasmas. However, arginine can restrict the growth of glucose-fermenting mycoplasmas and should not be added to media used to cultivate these species.
