Cultivating Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1 Actually, it wasn't difficult...

  Like E-coli, AMB-1 also grows in liquid medium, and this medium called Magnetic Spirillum Growth Medium (MSGM).  In the medium, we added nutrient, iron source (supplying AMB-1 in magnetite formation within magnetosomes), vitamin, and mineral solution.
