A study of growth and colony morphology of mycobacteria was performed on 7H10 medium and compared with the same medium to which WR 1339 was added. Collection strains of human, bovine, and atypical mycobacteria, in addition to 1,199 sputa, were planted on both media. The results showed that WR 1339 modifies the growth and colony morphology of human, bovine, atypical group I, and, to a lesser degree, atypical groups II, III, and IV mycobacteria. The great majority of human and bovine strains exhibit definite cords when examined at a magnification of 100 times. The colonies are larger when WR 1339 is added, especially if there is a small number of colonies. The addition of WR 1339 spreads the growth on the surface of the agar, producing a thin but larger colony as compared with 7H10 medium alone on which the colonies grow more vertically, thus producing thick but smaller colonies. WR 1339 spreads the growth, producing thin and transparent colonies where the cords are oriented in uniplane and easily visible directly on the isolation media. Half of the positive sputum cultures were easily identified at 12 days. The presence of typical cords permits a quick screening diagnosis of species directly on the isolation media and, in most instances, elimination of the possibility of atypical or contaminating colonies.
