Abstract:
:A defined medium for growth of 24 strains of Moraxella (Branhamella) catarrhalis was devised. This medium (medium B4) contains sodium lactate as a partial carbon source, proline as both a partial carbon source and a partial nitrogen source, aspartate as a partial nitrogen source, and the growth factors arginine, glycine, and methionine. Either aspartate, glutamate, or proline could serve as sole nitrogen source, but growth occurred at a significantly better rate if proline was present together with either aspartate or glutamate, or with both aspartate and glutamate. With the exception of strain ATCC 23246, all the strains had an absolute requirement for arginine and either a partial or absolute requirement for glycine. The concentration of glycine required for optimal growth was found to be relatively high for an amino acid growth factor. Heart infusion broth was found to be growth inhibitory for spontaneous mutants of one strain able to grow in the absence of arginine, and such mutants reverted readily to arginine dependence accompanied by the ability to grow faster on the complex medium. Growth rates in the defined medium B4 were enhanced by the simultaneous addition of asparagine, glutamate, glutamine, leucine, lysine, histidine, and phenylalanine.
