Limitations of the Use of 5-Fluorouracil as a Selective Agent for the Isolation of Leptospirae

D. R. Ris

Wallaceville Animal Research Centre, Private Bag, Upper Hutt, New Zealand

ABSTRACT

It has been shown that some component of Fletcher medium is able to annul the inhibitory action of 5-fluorouracil (400 µg/ml) on bacteria other than leptospirae. The most likely ingredient which can be implicated in this context appears to be beef extract.
