Abstract

SUMMARY

The function of serum in the composition of culture media for trypanosomes was investigated with Serum supplies stearic acid, essential for the growth of this trypanosome. A liquid heat-sterilizable medium, composed of peptone and known chemicals is described. The growth of in this medium reached 70 x 10 trypanosomes/ml.
