| 1 Dissolve ingredients except bicarbonate, cysteine and sulfide. Sparge medium with 80% H2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Add and dissolve bicarbonate, then dispense medium under 80% H2 and 20% CO2 gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes to 30% of their volume and autoclave. Add cysteine and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas. Prior to use check pH of complete medium and adjust to 6.8 - 7.0, if necessary. | |||||
| 2 After inoculation add sterile 80% H2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture to 1 bar overpressure. | |||||
