1 Dissolve ingredients except carbonate, fucose, vitamins, cysteine, and sulfide, then sparge medium with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Dispense medium under the same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Add fucose, vitamins, cysteine, and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas (vitamins are sterilized by filtration) and carbonate from a sterile anoxic stock solution prepared under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture. Before use adjust the pH of the complete medium to 7.3 - 7.5, if necessary.
