1 Dissolve ingredients (except carbonate, pyrosulfite and vitamins), then sparge medium with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Dispense medium under same gas atmosphere into Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Add pyrosulfite from a 10% (w/v) stock solution adjusted to pH 7.5-8.0 with NaOH, made anoxic with 100% N2 gas and sterilized by filtration. Vitamins are added from a stock solution prepared under 100% N2 gas atmosphere and sterilized by filtration and carbonate is added from a sterile stock solution prepared under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas atmosphere. Adjust pH of complete medium to 7.5 - 8.0. Incubate without shaking.
