Resuscitation of MAP and Growth Stimulation

Dormancy, a physiological state in which MAP is viable but non-culturable, can occur during adverse environmental conditions (Whittington et al., 2004). Lamont et al. (2012) reported that 1-year-old broth cultures of MAP contained a mix of vegetative cells and a morphotype resem­bling a spore.

Conceptually it may be possible to improve culture success rates by stimulat­ing dormant cells to resume vegetative growth. Recently, Rock et al. (2016) reported significant improvement in growth and recovery rate of presumed dormant MAP when a commercial reducing agent Oxyrase® was incorporated in M7H9C liquid medium, but there does not ap­pear to have been any further work published. Claims have also been made about the sub­stantial benefits of a non-disclosed commercial growth stimulant for cultivation of MAP (Bull et al., 2016), but without proper validation data or follow-up studies it is not possible to assess these claims.
