1 Dissolve ingredients (except carbonate, sulfite and sulfide), adjust pH of solution to 7.0 and sparge with 100% N2 gas for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Dispense under same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Prior to use add sulfite 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 atmosphere. The stock solution of sulfite should by freshly prepared and sterilized by filtration. Prior to use check pH of complete medium and adjust to 7.5, if necessary.
