2. Gibbons RJ, Macdonald JB. Haemin and vitamin K as required factors for cultivation of certain strains of B. melaninogevicus. Journal of Bacteriology 1960; 80:164-70
The following constituents have been added to the formulation to enhance performance:
- Yeast extract provides a vitamin source, and starch is present to absorb any toxic metabolites
- L-cysteine is present as a reducing agent and has shown to stimulate the growth of some anaerobes1
- Glucose is the main carbohydrate, and sodium pyruvate is also added as an energy source for asaccharolytic cocci, such as Veillonella
- Haemin and Vitamin K are also included as growth factors required by many Bacteriodes species2
- Neomycin is present as a selective agent for obligate anaerobes
