Laboratory Cultivation and Storage of Shigella.

Shelley M Payne
Published in: Current protocols in microbiology (2020)
Shigella species, which are closely related to Escherichia coli, can easily be maintained and stored in the laboratory. This article includes protocols for preparation of routine growth conditions and media, for storage of the bacteria, and for monitoring of the presence of the virulence plasmid. © 2019 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Basic Protocol 1: Growth of S. flexneri from frozen stocks or agar stabs Basic Protocol 2: Growth of S. flexneri in rich liquid medium Alternate Protocol 1: Growth of S. flexneri in rich defined medium Alternate Protocol 2: Growth of S. flexneri in minimal medium Basic Protocol 3: Storage of S. flexneri in frozen stocks Alternate Protocol 3: Storage of S. flexneri in agar stabs.
