Black swimming dots in cell culture: first report of Bradyrhizobium as a cause
The 16S rRNA full gene analysis revealed that the black swimming dots in our cell culture flasks were due to Bradyrhizobium species. This study further clarifies that the BSDs in cell culture caused due to Bradyrhizobium species could not be cleared by 10 μg/ml concentration of both the antibiotics, piperacillin and ciprofloxacin.
