Detecting mycoplasma in cultured cell lines is a common but unfortunate occurrence for researchers. Eradicating the bacteria is difficult once they have entered the cell culture room. Due to the bacteria’s small size and high resilience, they can penetrate sterilizing-grade filters and survive for days on the surface of lab equipment. To avoid mycoplasma infection, scientists must employ good cell culture practices and implement strategies to detect contamination.
