PEHPS medium, developed for axenic cultivation of Entamoeba histolytica and E. invadens, was also capable of supporting the growth of a Trichomonas vaginalis strain, with an inoculum of 1 to 100 trichomonads/ml. The logarithmic growth phase in PEHPS or in TYI-S-33 medium lasted 72 h; yield (3.33 +/- 0.56 x 10(6) trichomonads/ml), duplication time (4.27 h), number of duplications (16.85), or increase ratio (33,328) in PEHPS medium showed no significant differences with those obtained in TYI-S-33 under similar culture conditions. Accordingly, PEHPS medium might be used for the axenic cultivation of T. vaginalis.
为溶组织内阿米巴和侵袭内阿米巴的无菌培养而研发的PEHPS培养基,也能够支持阴道毛滴虫菌株的生长,接种量为每毫升1至100个滴虫。在PEHPS或TYI-S-33培养基中的对数生长期持续72小时;在相似培养条件下,PEHPS培养基中的产量(3.33±0.56×10⁶个滴虫/毫升)、倍增时间(4.27小时)、倍增次数(16.85)或增长比率(33328)与在TYI-S-33培养基中获得的结果相比,无显著差异。因此,PEHPS培养基可用于阴道毛滴虫的无菌培养。
