Bailey, Jack S. (The George Washington University, Washington, D.C.),Harold W. Clark, William R. Felts, and Thomas McP. Brown . Growth inhibitory properties ofMycoplasma antibody. J. Bacteriol.86: 147–150. 1963.—A substance in antiserum responsible for growth inhibition ofMycoplasma was found to be associated with the water-insoluble globulin fraction. This fraction and the agglutinins removed from agglutinated antigen inhibited the growth ofMycoplasma in a similar manner. Sonic oscillation of antiserum broth cultures partially relieved the growth inhibition. The results of this study suggest the existence of neutralizedMycoplasma in a latent phase, which could explain their infrequent detection in tissues and fluids. The application of such techniques as sonic oscillation may improve the recovery and identification ofMycoplasma from these sources.
