1 Dissolve ingredients except bicarbonate, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, vitamins, trimethylamine, cysteine and sulfide, then sparge medium with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Add bicarbonate and equilibrate pH to 6.9 - 7.0, then distribute under the same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Add magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, vitamins (sterilized by filtration), trimethylamine, cysteine and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas. Prior to use adjust pH of complete medium to 7.2, if necessary.
Solution occurs in 266 other media (first defined in Medium 320).
