Assessment of the in vitro growing dynamics and kinetics of the non-pathogenic J and pathogenic 11 and 232 Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae strains

In conclusion, real-time culture titration by means of ATP or molecular assays was useful to describe the in vitro  growth of the tested strains. Knowledge about the in vitro growth behaviour of a specific strain in a specific medium may provide several advantages, including information about the time required to reach maximal titres by the culture. Noteworthy, the obtained results refers to the three strains u sed, so extrapolation to otherM. hyopneumoniae strains or culture conditions should be made cautiously.
