LONG-TERM STORABLE CULTURE MEDIUM FOR CULTURING OBLIGATE ANAEROBES OR MICROAEROPHILIC BACTERIA IN AEROBIC ENVIRONMENT, AND DETECTION METHOD OF OBLIGATE ANAEROBES OR MICROAEROPHILIC BACTERIA USING THE SAME CULTURE MEDIUM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide culture media suitable for storing for long period of time aiming at growing obligate anaerobes or microaerophilic bacteria in an aerobic environment, that is, culture media having ensured enough quality retaining period, and to provide simple detection methods of obligate anaerobes or microaerophilic bacteria using the culture medium.SOLUTION: The present invention provides a long-term storable culture medium for culturing obligate anaerobes or microaerophilic bacteria in an aerobic environment which contains dithiothreitol and/or ascorbic acid in a basal medium as a reducing agent, and a method of detecting obligate anaerobes or microaerophilic bacteria using the culture medium.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
