Hello,
does anybody know a chemically defined medium (CDM) for group A
streptococci (GAS) ?
The only information I've got is an article of the year 1980 containing
all the ingredients listed with their appropriate concentrations, but I
think (I hope !) there must be any readily available medium.
A first attempt with DMEM failed and unfortunately the products "BioRich
1" and "BioRich 2" (DMEM enriched with trace elements) from ICN are not
available for me at the moment.
Thanks for any help.
bye,
markus
