I tried to grow Streptococcus pneumoniae on TSA+5% sheep blood agar. It's a prepared media from BD. But it did not grow well, very tiny colony. It will be great if anyone can help me with their working expertise.
Did you grow it aerobically or anaerobically? Did you add catalase if grown aerobically? I am going to work on the growth conditions of Streptococcus pneumoniae as well. I have to figure out the media for for growing under aerobic conditions.
