Cell Culture Mycoplasmas: A Bibliography

  • Chapter
Mycoplasma Infection of Cell Cultures

Part of the book series: Cellular Senescence and Somatic Cell Genetics ((CSSCG,volume 3))

Abstract

The purpose of this bibliography is to list all available references on the various aspects of mycoplasma infection of animal cell cultures. Topics covered include: general reviews and textbooks; basic properties of mycoplasmas; incidence, detection and identification of cell culture mycoplasmas; effects of mycoplasmas on various cell culture parameters; effects of mycoplasmas on organ cultures; antibiotic sensitivities and potential methods of elimination; and preventive measures. Many sources were utilized in this literature search. Major sources were Volumes I, II and III of the mycoplasma bibliographies published by Domermuth and Rittenhouse, a Medlars II search conducted by the National Library of Medicine’s National Interactive Retrieval Service for this Institute, and our own personal files.
