1 Dissolve ingredients (except bicarbonate, phosphate buffer, glycine, arginine, vitamins, and sulfide), then sparge medium with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Add bicarbonate and adjust pH to 7.3, then dispense medium under same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. After autoclaving add phosphate buffer, glycine, arginine, vitamins (sterilized by filtration), and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas atmosphere. Prior to inoculation add 10 - 20 mg sodium dithionite per liter medium from a 5% (w/v) stock solution, freshly prepared under 100% N2 gas and filter-sterilized.
