1 Add and dissolve ingredients of solution A, adjust pH to 7.2, then sparge medium with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Distribute medium under same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Solution B is autoclaved separately under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas atmosphere. Solution C is prepared under 100% N2 gas and sterilized by filtration. Solutions D, E and F are autoclaved under 100% N2 gas. To complete the medium, appropriate amounts of solutions B to F are added to the sterile solution A. Adjust pH of complete medium to 7.2, if necessary.
2 Note: Use 25 - 50% inoculum. Growth can be followed by the clearing of stearate. Maintain cultures at 25°C.

1 First dissolve FeCl2 in the HCl, then dilute in water, add and dissolve the other salts. Finally make up to 1000.00 ml.
Solution occurs in 28 other media (first defined in Medium 1310).
1 Rumen fluid from cow or sheep (obtained from fistulated animals or abattoir refuse) is filtered through muslin, autoclaved at 121°C for 15 min and then centrifuged at 27,000 g for 20 min. The supernatant is made anoxic by sparging with 100% N2 gas for 15 min, dispensed under same gas atmosphere into anoxic serum vials to 30% of volume and then stored frozen at -20°C.
