1 Dissolve sodium chloride, potassium hydrogenphosphate and ammonium chloride, then sparge solution with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for at least 30 - 45 min to remove dissolved oxygen and to saturate the solution with CO2. Dispense solution in vials suitable for anaerobic cultures (e.g. Balch-type tubes) to 30% volume under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas atmosphere. Close vials with butyl rubber septa and autoclave. Add trace elements, calcium chloride, magnesium sulfate, thiosulfate, and vitamins from sterile stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas and bicarbonate from a sterile stock solution prepared under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture. Thiosulfate and vitamins are sterilized by filtration. Adjust pH of the medium to 7.5 - 7.8 using a sterile stock solution of sodium carbonate (5% w/v). | |||||
2 After inoculation, add sterile air (with hypodermic needle through the rubber closure) to a concentration of ca. 4% (v/v) O2 (e.g., add 7 ml of air to a Balch-type tube with a total volume of 27 ml). | |||||
3 Note: Use at least 10% (v/v) as inoculum. |
