Sandra,
You can try:
Toru Okuda, and Saburo Komatsubara, 1998: Selective isolation of
Actinobispora on gellan gum plates. Can. J. Microbiol. Vol. 44(1), pp. 1-5.
(URL for Abstract: http://www.icsti.org/cisti/journals/sample/w97-117.html; it
says about developing some new medium - based on humic acid-vitamin agar).

Henryk
