A semidefined agar medium was found suitable for production and cultivation of the L-form of Staphylococcus aureus. In semidefined liquid medium, growth of the L-form took place in the form of a sediment containing large masses of cells, but heavy and diffuse growth occurred in the same medium with 0.05% agar. The optimal pH for L-colony formation on solid medium was 6.5. More L-colonies developed on 0.75% agar than at higher agar concentrations. L-colonies developed in greater numbers on pour plates than on streak plates, and in some cases more L-colonies appeared under anaerobic incubation. L-colony formation appeared to be inhibited by sodium-citrate. The vitamin requirements of the L-forms studied were similar to those of the classical form.
