1 Dissolve ingredients (except bicarbonate, cysteine and vitamins) and sparge medium with 100% N2 gas for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Adjust pH to 8.3 with 10 N NaOH, add bicarbonate and cysteine and dissolve. Switch gas phase to 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture and flush only the head space of the medium vessel. Dispense medium under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave 15 min at 121°C. Add vitamins to the autoclaved medium from an anoxic stock solution prepared under 100% N2 gas atmosphere and sterilized by filtration. Adjust pH of complete medium to 8.3, if necessary.
2 Note: If creatinine is used as the substrate replacing N-methylhydantoin, prepare separately an anoxic, filter sterilized stock solution of creatinine under 100% N2 gas atmosphere.
