Abstract: | A solid medium (FeTSB) was developed for the simultaneous isolation and enumeration of the iron-oxidising bacterium Thiobacilluls ferrooxidans and acidophilic heterotrophic bacteria. The medium consisted of ferrous sulfate, tryptone soya broth and basal salts, solidified with agarose, although bacteriological agar could be substituted for some strains. The medium has been used to isolate bacteria from natural environments and also in laboratory studies of characterised strains. The factors which influence the success of colony growth on solid media are discussed. |
