Mycobacterium microti (vole bacillus): a method for viable counts within 21 days of culture
Applied Microbiology
|June 1, 1973
Abstract:
A method is described for counting viable units of Mycobacterium microti (vole bacillus) suspensions after 21 days of culture on an oleic-albumin agar medium containing 5% defibrinated horse blood, with a tight seal to maintain humidity. This method is important because vole bacillus is an alternative to BCG in the prevention of tuberculosis.
