This bacterial growth medium was developed in 1971 for Lactococcus species isolated from milk products. It was originally called M16 medium,[1] but in 1975 Terzaghi and Sandine[2] added disodium-β-glycerophosphate to the medium as a buffer, and named the new growth medium M17 medium. It was later found that the addition of disodium-β-glycerophosphate inhibits the growth of many Lactobacillus species.[3]
1. Heat with frequent agitation and boil for 1 minute to completely dissolve.
2. Autoclave at 121 °C for 15 minutes. Cool to 50 °C.
3. Add 50 ml filter sterilized 10% lactose solution and mix well (the lactose can be exchanged to other carbohydrates e.g. glucose, resulting in GM17 medium)
