| 1 Dissolve ingredients except bicarbonate, fructose, vitamins, cysteine, and sulfide, bring to the boil, and cool to room temperature under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture. Add bicarbonate (solid) and equilibrate the medium with the gas until a pH of around 7.4 is reached. Then distribute under the same gas atmosphere in anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Before use adjust the pH to 7.5 - 8.0 by adding a sterile anoxic stock solution of sodium carbonate (5% w/v) prepared under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture and add fructose, vitamins (sterilized by filtration), cysteine, and sulfide from anoxic sterile stock solutions prepared under 100% N2. | |||||
| 2 Note: For autotrophic growth D-fructose is omitted and a gas atmosphere of 80% H2 and 20% CO2 is used. | |||||
