QUANTITY

Yeast extract constitutes a primary nutrient leading to Legionella growth. Activated charcoal decomposes hydrogen peroxide (toxic metabolic by-product), captures the carbon dioxide and modifies the surface tension.

The ACES/KOH buffer maintains the pH and permits aerobic incubation. Cysteine and ferric pyrophosphate represents indispensable nutritive elements for the growth of Legionella.
α-ketoglutarate is a growth activator for Legionella.
