1 Dissolve ingredients (except bicarbonate, yeast extract, glucose, vitamins and sulfide), then sparge medium with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Add bicarbonate, dispense medium under same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. After autoclaving add yeast extract, glucose, vitamins and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas. Vitamins should be sterilized by filtration. Prior to inoculation adjust pH of complete medium to 6.5 - 6.7, if necessary.
