AI Article Synopsis

  • Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is a challenging pathogen to culture due to contamination from the faster-growing Mycoplasma hyorhinis in samples.
  • The study aimed to enhance a culture medium for M. hyopneumoniae recovery and improve selective growth methods to isolate it from other contaminants.
  • Findings showed that a solid medium with purified agar and DEAE-dextran worked effectively, and kanamycin at 2μg/ml selectively inhibited M. hyorhinis growth while allowing M. hyopneumoniae to thrive, paving the way for better culture techniques.

Article Abstract

The fastidious porcine respiratory pathogen Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae has proven difficult to culture since it was first isolated in 1965. A reliable solid medium has been particularly challenging. Moreover, clinical and pathological samples often contain the fast-growing M. hyorhinis which contaminates and overgrows M. hyopneumoniae in primary culture. The aim of this study was to optimise the culture medium for recovery of M. hyopneumoniae and to devise a medium for selection of M. hyopneumoniae from clinical samples also containing M. hyorhinis. The solid medium devised by Niels Friis was improved by use of Purified agar and incorporation of DEAE-dextran. Addition of glucose or neutralization of acidity in liquid medium with NaOH did not improve the final yield of viable organisms or alter the timing of peak viability. Analysis of the relative susceptibility of M. hyopneumoniae and M. hyorhinis strains to four antimicrobials showed that M. hyopneumoniae is less susceptible than M. hyorhinis to kanamycin. This was consistent in all UK and Danish strains tested. A concentration of 2μg/ml of kanamycin selectively inhibited the growth of all M. hyorhinis tested, while M. hyopneumoniae was able to grow. This forms the basis of an effective selective culture medium for M. hyopneumoniae.
