1 Dissolve ingredients (except cysteine and glucose), then sparge medium with 100% N2 gas for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Add solid cysteine and adjust pH to 7.3 - 7.5, then dispense medium under 100% N2 gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Before inoculation, add glucose from a sterile anoxic stock solution prepared under 100% N2 gas. | |||||
2 Addition of 10 - 20 mg sodium dithionite per liter (e.g. from 5% (w/v) solution, freshly prepared under N2 and filter-sterilized) can be used to completely reduce the medium and may stimulate growth at the beginning. |
