1 Dissolve ingredients except calcium chloride, thiosulfate and sulfide. Sparge medium with 100% N2 gas for at least 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic, then dispense medium under same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Add calcium chloride, thiosulfate and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas. The pH of the complete medium should be at 6.7 - 6.8.
Solution occurs in 265 other media (first defined in Medium 320).
