1 Dissolve ingredients (except bicarbonate, glucose, vitamins and reducing agents), then sparge medium with 100% CO2 gas for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Add solid bicarbonate, adjust pH to 6.8 - 7.0 and dispense medium under 100% CO2 gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Add glucose, vitamins (sterilized by filtration), cysteine and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas. The final pH of the medium should be 7.0. |

1 First dissolve nitrilotriacetic acid and adjust pH to 6.5 with KOH, then add minerals. Adjust final to pH 7.0 with KOH. |
1 Rumen fluid from cow or sheep (obtained from fistulated animals or abattoir refuse) is filtered through muslin, autoclaved at 121°C for 15 min and then centrifuged at 27,000 g for 20 min. The supernatant is made anoxic by sparging with 100% N2 gas for 15 min, dispensed under same gas atmosphere into anoxic serum vials to 30% of volume and then stored frozen at -20°C. |
