متن کاملGrowth of Pneumocystis Carinii in Axenic Culture
SUMMARY In this research, which was done for two years, we investigated various liquid and solid media without feeder ceells, for the ability to support growth of P. carinii. Data obtained from counting the organisms nuclei showed that, addition of Cycloheximide, penicillin, & streptomycin to neopeptoneN-Acetyle Glucoseamine (N.P.G. medium) can provides growth requirements of organism in its...
