FURTHER STUDIES ON A BOVINE PLASMA MEDIUM THAT CAN BE HEAT STERILIZED FOR LACTOBACILLI Nuevos Estudios Sobre un Medio de Cultivo de Plasma de Bovino que puede ser Esterilizado por Calor para Lactobacilos

Preparation and efficiency of a bovine plasma medium (BPM), based on liquid or powder bovine blood plasma that can be heat sterilized, is described. Protein, amino acids, and pH of the medium were analyzed, The efficiency of the BPM was compared against a commercial medium (MRS) using L. plan- tarum, L. casei. L. bulgaricus and L. acidophilus.
