1 Use medium 480, but reduce the amount of Na acetate to 1.0 g/l and add 3.0 g/l casitone. Prepare sulphide and vitamin stock solutions anaerobically. Autoclave the sulphide solution but filter sterilise the vitamins. Prepare the medium anaerobically under N2:CO2 80:20. Adjust the pH to 5.7 with HCl. Sterilise the medium by heating for 3 hours on three successive days at 90-100°C. Add the vitamins and sulphide to the sterilised medium before use. The final pH should be 5.7-6.0. Dr. Bonch-Osmoloskaya supplied the information that the strain grows better on a peptone originally available in Russia. This product is no longer available, but it appears this product gave better growth than with highly purified products from Oxoid or Difco.

1 Dissolve ingredients (except sulfur, acetate, bicarbonate, vitamins and sulfide) and sparge medium with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Adjust pH to 5.9, dispense under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials containing already the appropriate amount of sulfur and sterilize by heating for 2-3 hours in a boiling water bath on each of 3 successive days. Add acetate, vitamins (sterilized by filtration)and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas and bicarbonate from a sterile anoxic stock solution prepared under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture. Prior to use adjust pH of complete medium to 6.8 - 7.0, if necessary.
