1 Mix ingredients, except NaHCO3, L-cysteine x HCl x H2O and Na2S x 9H2O, and bring to a boil for 5-10 sec. Cool down under a stream of H2-CO2 (80:20), and add NaHCO3 to the medium. Dispense the medium into culture vessels (e.g., 20 ml of the medium in 120 ml serum bottles) under a stream of H2-CO2 (80:20) gas mixture and seal with butyl rubber stoppers. After autoclaving, stand the medium overnight and adjust pH to 6.5, if necessary. Separately autoclave L-cysteine x HCl and Na2S x 9H2O as 5% solutions, respectively, under a N2 atmosphere. Prior to inoculation, aseptically and anaerobically add the L-cysteine x HCl and Na2S x 9H2O solutions. Pressurize the inoculated bottles to 200 kPa H2-CO2 (80:20).
