Compound Amount Unit
Solution A 952 ml
Solution B 30 ml
Solution C 1 ml
Solution D 10 ml
Solution E 10 ml
Solution F 10 ml
1 Add and dissolve ingredients of solution A, adjust pH to 7.2 and 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 and autoclave. Solution B is prepared under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas atmosphere and autoclaved. Solution C is prepared under 100% N2 gas and sterilized by filtration. Solutions D, E and F are autoclaved under 100% N2 gas atmosphere. To complete the medium appropriate amounts of solutions B to F are added to the sterile solution A in in the sequence as indicated.
2 Note: Some cultures are shipped in semi-solid medium which stimulates growth at the beginning. For agar stabs 3.00 g/l agar are added to the complete medium from a sterile anoxic stock solution (2% w/v). Upon receipt add anoxically 1 - 2 ml of the recommended freshly prepared liquid medium to the agar tube and incubate for 3 - 5 days . After incubation transfer 0.5 ml of the resulting cell suspension in the liquid phase to tubes with liquid medium.

Clarified rumen fluid #

1000
1 Rumen fluid from cow or sheep (obtained from fistulated animals or abattoir refuse) is filtered through muslin, autoclaved at 121°C for 15 min and then centrifuged at 27,000 g for 20 min. The supernatant is made anoxic by sparging with 100% N2 gas for 15 min, dispensed under same gas atmosphere into anoxic serum vials to 30% of volume and then stored frozen at -20°C.
