1 Dissolve ingredients (except carbonate, vitamins, lactate and sulfide), sparge medium with 100% N2 gas for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic, then dispense under same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. After autoclaving complete the medium by adding vitamins (sterilized by filtration), lactate 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 atmosphere. Adjust pH of the complete medium to 7.0 - 7.2, if necessary.
2 Note: Prior to inoculation 10-20 mg/l sodium dithionite (added from a 5% w/v solution freshly prepared under N2 and filter-sterilized) can be added to the medium to stimulate growth at the beginning.
