1 Dissolve ingredients except carbonate, pyruvate, yeast extract, and vitamins, then sparge medium with 100% CO2 gas for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Add carbonate and adjust pH to 6.0 - 6.5, then dispense medium under 100% CO2 gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Add pyruvate, yeast extract and vitamins from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas atmosphere. Stock solutions of pyruvate and vitamins are sterilized by filtration. After completing the medium adjust pH to 6.5 with a sterile anoxic stock solution of 1 N NaOH.
