1 Dissolve ingredients except bicarbonate, nitrate, vitamins and acetate. Sparge medium with 100% N2 gas for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic, adjust pH to 7.0 - 7.4, then dispense under same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Add nitrate, vitamins and acetate from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas and bicarbonate from a sterile anoxic stock solution prepared under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas atmosphere. Vitamins should be sterilized by filtration. The pH of the complete medium should be adjusted to 7.4 - 7.8, if necessary.
