| 1 Dissolve ingredients (except carbonate, lactate, vitamins and sulfide), then sparge medium with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Dispense medium under same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. After autoclaving add lactate, vitamins and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas and carbonate from a sterile stock solution prepared under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture. The vitamin solution should be sterilized by filtration. Adjust pH of the complete medium to 7.0-7.2, if necessary. | |||||
