Detection of mycoplasmas in cell cultures, using L6M, containing 6-methylpurine deoxyriboside.
Methods for the detection of mycoplasmas in cell cultures with 6MPDR are rapid and inexpensive and do not require special skill in the mycoplasma culturing. Properties of L6M, a dry, lyophilised, sterilised, and thermostabile reagent containing 6MPDR, are described. Its diagnostic value is comparable to that of the liquid, 6MPDR containing reagent MycoTect requiring storage at -70 degrees C.
