1 Dissolve ingredients except calcium chloride, carbonate, glucose, vitamins and sulfide. Sparge medium with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Dispense medium under the same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Add calcium chloride, glucose, vitamins and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas and carbonate from a sterile anoxic stock solution prepared under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture. Vitamins should be sterilized by filtration. Prior to use adjust pH of complete medium to 7.2 - 7.4, if necessary.
