1 Dissolve ingredients (except nitrate, yeast extract and bicarbonate) and sparge medium with 100% N2 gas for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Adjust pH to 7.0 and dispense under 100% N2 gas atmosphere into serum vials (e.g., 20 ml medium per 100 ml bottle). Replace gas phase with 80% H2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture and autoclave. Prior to inoculation add nitrate and yeast extract 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. Adjust pH of complete medium to 7.0 - 7.2.
