1 Prepare the growth medium as follows:
2 Dilute 100 ml solution 1 to 1 litre with 2% NaCl and then add 1 ml of solution 3, 1 ml of the trace elements, and 0.1 ml of solution 2. If solid media is required add 1.5% agar. Dispense the medium into the growth vessels. If using sealed vessels it is appropriate to add 25% methane to the gas phase and autoclave at 121C (15psi) for 15 minutes. Autoclave the phosphate buffer separately. When the growth medium is cool 10 ml/l of the phosphate buffer is added - if too warm the phosphate will precipitate. Liquid cultures should be grown with shaking.
