1 Solution A is sparged with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture to reach a pH below 6 (at least 30 - 45 min), then distributed under the same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclaved. Solutions B, E and F are autoclaved separately under 100% N2 gas atmosphere. Solution C is autoclaved under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas atmosphere. Solution D is prepared under 100% N2 gas atmosphere and sterilized by filtration. To complete the medium appropriate amounts of solutions B to F are added to the sterile solution A in the sequence as indicated. Final pH of the medium should be 7.0 - 7.3.
