Agitated Mass Cultivation of Naegleria fowleri

The Journal of Parasitology, 1977
Large quantities (3 X 109 amebae/liter) of Naegleria fowleri were obtained in agitated cultures using a complex medium. Logarithmic growth occurred during the initial 36 hr and the mean generation time was 5.5 hr. The maximum cell yield was 3 X 108 amebae/ml. The pH of the medium increased during logarithmic and stationary growth and the pH optimum for
