Description
PurMa™ Mycoplasma Removal Spray
Background
PurMa™ Mycospray is the most sophisticated Mycoplasma removal spray currently available in the market. Currently, an estimated 25% of U.S. laboratory cell cultures are contaminated with various species of mycoplasma.
Source of Mycoplasma to your laboratory
- The lack of HEPA filter and positive pressure. Without the mentioned condition, there is certainly a flow of mycoplasma in the lab.
- Moreover, lab personnel is the second main source of mycoplasma contamination.
So, entering mycoplasma to your tissue culture room is inevitable. As a result, the tissue culture hood, CO2 incubator, benches, pipettors and the gloves you wear need to be routinely treated by a mycoplasma disinfectant.
PurMa™ Mycoplasma Removal Spray Special Features
- PurMa™ Mycospray is formulated to destroy the mycoplasma nuclear composition and will not leave any mycoplasma if it is used as instructed below.
- Moreover, PurMa™ Mycospray is safe for skin and does not create any vapor to inhale at room temperature.
- PurMa™ Mycospray destroys the following species with 100% certainty: A. laidlawii, M. arginine, M. boris, M. fermentans M. hominis, M. hyorhinis and M. orale.
Instruction to use
- Because of the massive flow of mycoplasma to your tissue culture room, PurMa™ Mycospray needs to be used routinely at least three times per week.
- After completing work in tissue culture lab, routinely, wipe inside the hood and all the surfaces including the microscope area where you view your cells as well as the pipets. This is however, applies to other instruments which you do not keep under the UV light.
- Apply PurMa™ Mycospray , DO NOT dry it. It is therefore, crucial to leave the surface wet as it takes 5 minutes to complete the destruction of mycoplasma nuclei membrane.
- On the following day clean the mentioned surfaces with 70% alcohols to remove the residues of the dead mycoplasmas.
- Wear mask at all times inside the tissue culture lab as breathing is one of the main sources of several mycoplasma including m. Fermentans m. Hominis, m. Hyorhinis and m. Orale
- Wash your gloves with PurMatm Mycospray before any cell culture work

PurMa™ Mycoplasma Growth Media is a proprietary combination which provides an excellent environment for various species of mycoplasma to grow.Nutrition
Mycoplasma has a complex nutritional requirement. This therefore, makes them dependent on external supplies. PurMa™ Mycoplasma Growth Media is ideal for growing different strains. Mycoplasmas have three important features: they are categorized as Mollicutes class, they also possess low GC content, and they basically don’t have cell wall. Additionally, mycoplasma has a simplified metabolic pathway and therefore it is a hard to grow this organism, especially under laboratory conditions.Mycoplasma Detection
PurMa™ Mycoplasma Growth Media is also used for detecting the exact strain of contaminating mycoplasma. The best tool for evaluating the presence of mycoplasma in any liquid such as media is by using the PCR method. The mycoplasma agar bcan also be used by growing mycoplasma and counting mycoplasma fried egg” shape colonies.- Initially, Incubate the contaminated samples of media, FBS or cell line in 5 ml of PurMa™ MycoGrowth media (liquid). The condition must be anaerobic while shaking.
- Pipet 100 µl of the media on an PurMa™ MycoAgar plate.
- After three days individual fried egg structure will start to show up.
- Pick up several colonies and grow them in PurMa™ MycoGrowth liquid media.
- Use PurMa™ Mycoplasma PCR Detection kit (Cat#: P5M011404) to amplify the fragment.
- Have the PCR reaction cleaned and sent for sequencing.
- The 230bp PCR fragment resulted from our kit will clearly determine the strain of your contaminant.

PurMa™ Mycoplasma Treatment Kit (MTK) (100X) is a valuable tool for eliminating mycoplasma from live cells.Important Note
Completing the eradication of mycoplasma from a contaminated cell line is laborious, time consuming as well as expensive. The procedure might also cause more contamination. So, we strongly recommend disposing of the contaminated cell line and starting a new culture if possible. This, however, might not be possible due to high value cell lines such as monoclonal antibodies or stable cell lines.Feeder Cells
During the eradication process, fresh spleen cells of a healthy mouse are needed. Before starting the process: Isolate the spleen cells from a healthy adult mouse. Resuspend in 10 ml media of choice containing 20% FBS in a 15ml snap tube and place in 37°C CO2 incubator. For detailed procedure regarding the isolating spleen cells, click here: Detailed Procedurebefore you start
- Decontaminate your CO2 incubator, Hood, and benches before starting the procedure, otherwise in no time, the contamination will be back into your cultured cells.
- Use unopened media bottles and fresh FBS.
- During the following mentioned procedure and after that, wear mask at all times while you work in cell culture lab.
- Spray your gloves, bench, hood with PurMa™ Mycospray (1X) (Cat#: P5M010405) before and after work. PurMaTM Mycospray (1X) instantly eliminates/ deactivates mycoplasma.

Mycoplasma Contamination
Contamination with mycoplasma does not cause turbidity or obvious changes in cell culture media, therefore is under-looked in many laboratories. Although, to date, more than 190 mycoplasma species have been reported, it is eight species that account for more than 95% of all mycoplasma contamination in cell culture, including: M. arginini (bovine), M. fermentans (human), M. hominis (human), M. hyorhinis (porcine), M. orale (human), M. pirum (human), M. salivarium (human), and Acholeplasma laidlawii (bovine). Our sophisticated PurMa™ Mycoplasma PCR Detection Kit not only detects the mycoplasma in your cell culture system, but also determines the exact mycoplasma strain is the cause of contamination.Consequences of contamination with mycoplasma
- Gradual deterioration of the cell line, which is especially significant in stable cell lines (15-35%)
- Inconsistency among the results and much higher standard deviations in your statistical analysis.
- Altering DNA, RNA, and protein synthesis.
- Diminishing amino acid and ATP levels.
- Chromosomal alterations.
- Modifying host-cell immune system.
Mycoplasma contamination can happen in various ways
- Faulty laboratory equipment. (For Instance: a dysfunctioning laminar flow could let mycoplasma-containing dust in the biosafety cabinet, thereby causing contamination of all of the media and cells within.)
- Inadequate culturing techniques, human breath contains several major mycoplasma including M. fermentans which count for the majority of cell culture contamination (45%). %). Wearing a mask is absolutely needed while working in a cell culture lab, especially when checking cells under microscope.
- Getting a cell line from another laboratory may introduce Mycoplasma contamination.
Mycoplasma can affect the phenotypic and functional characteristics of cells In Vitro
Including:- Chromosomal aberrations
- Disruption of nucleic acid synthesis
- Changes in membrane antigenicity
- Inhibition of cell proliferation and metabolism
- Decreased transfection rates
- Changes in gene expression profiles
- Affects virus production.
- Cell death
