RESUMO

Northey, W. T. (Arizona State University, Tempe) and L. D. Brooks. In vitro conversion of Histoplasma capsulatum. J. Bacteriol. 84:577–580. 1962.—The in vitro fungus-yeast conversion of the diphasic fungus, Histoplasma capsulatum, has been accomplished using enzymatic digests of casein. Of these casein digests, the most rapid and complete conversion was found when Ferm-Amine Types I, II, and III were used. Technical grades of these products were found to stimulate conversion to a greater extent than the reagent grades. The use of these media as research and diagnostic aids is suggested.
