1 Dissolve ingredients (except yeast extract, lactate, vitamins and sulfide) and sparge medium for 30 - 45 min with 100% N2 gas to make it anoxic. Distribute under same gas atmosphere in anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. After sterilization add yeast extract, lactate, vitamins (sterilized by filtration) and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas. Before use, neutralize the sodium sulfide solution by dropwise addition of 2 N H2SO4 (see medium 29). Adjust pH of complete medium to 6.8 - 7.0.
Solution occurs in 8 other media (first defined in Medium 144).
