I'm going to do an axenic cultivation of T. tenax from the human oral cavity and I'm having some trouble in finding the suitable culture media for T. tenax. It is found that T. tenax is refractory to axenic cultivation by CPLM and Diamond's TYM media, compared to the other Trichomonas species (eg: T. vaginalis, T. gallinae) and the latest published paper on this topic that I could find was published in 1982.

Any insight is highly appreciated. Thank you.
