A new culture technique that involves a potato slice and enriched Middlebrook 7H9 in a two-part glass tube has been developed to revive dormant or persistent Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis and acclimate it to Middlebrook 7H9 liquid media. This method is more efficient than directly introducing the bacteria into the liquid medium. Copyright © 2023 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
