1 Dissolve ingredients (except carbonate, vitamins, gentisic acid and sulfide), then sparge medium with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Dispense under same gas atmosphere in culture vessels and autoclave. Add vitamins (sterilized by filtration) and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas and carbonate from a sterile anoxic stock solution prepared under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture. Add gentisic acid (2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid) from a sterile and neutralized 200 mM stock solution prepared under 100% N2 gas atmosphere. If necessary, adjust the final pH of the medium to 7.2.
2 Note: Addition of 10 - 20 mg sodium dithionite per liter (e.g. from 5% (w/v) solution, freshly prepared under N2 and filter-sterilized) may stimulate growth at the beginning. For transfers use 5 - 10% inoculum. 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.
