# 1327: LARKINELLA ARBORICOLA MEDIUM


## Main sol. 1327

0.1	g	KH2PO4	
1	g	N-Acetylglucosamine	
0.1	g	Peptone	
0.1	g	Yeast extract	
0.1	g	Casamino acids	
0.5	g	Glucose	
20	ml	**Hutner's salts**	
980	ml	Distilled water	
15	g	Agar, for solid medium	

1. The medium may be solidified by adding 15 g/l agar. Final pH should be 6.0 - 6.5


## Hutner's salts

10	g	Nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA)	
29.7	g	MgSO4 x 7 H2O	
3.335	g	CaCl2 x 2 H2O	
9.25	mg	(NH4)6Mo7O24 x 4 H2O	
99	mg	FeSO4 x 7 H2O	
50	ml	**"Metals 44"**	
950	ml	Distilled water	

1. Dissolve the nitrilotriacetic acid.
2. Adjust pH to 7.0 with KOH (~7.3 g).
3. Dissolve other salts separately and combine.
4. Adjust pH to 6.8 with NaOH or H2SO4.


## "Metals 44"

250	mg	Na-EDTA	
1095	mg	ZnSO4 x 7 H2O	
500	mg	FeSO4 x 7 H2O	
154	mg	MnSO4 x H2O	
39.2	mg	CuSO4 x 5 H2O	
24.8	mg	Co(NO3)2 x 6 H2O	
17.7	mg	Na2B4O7 x 10 H2O	
1000	ml	Distilled water	

1. Dissolve the EDTA and add a few drops of concentrated H2SO4 to retard precipitation of the heavy metal ions.
