  • Title: Defined minimal growth medium for Acanthamoeba polyphaga.
    Author: Ingalls CS, Brent MM.
    Journal: J Protozool; 1983 Aug; 30(3):606-8. PubMed ID: 6644631.
    Abstract:
    Nutritional requirements of Acanthamoeba polyphaga (strain PD) were compared to those reported for A. castellanii. Although A. polyphaga and A. castellanii have essentially the same minimal amino acid requirements--arginine, methionine, leucine, isoleucine, and valine--A. polyphaga cannot utilize acetate as sole carbon source, but A. castellanii can if the medium is supplemented with glycine.
