1 Dissolve ingredients (except cysteine, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride and vitamins), bring medium to the boil, then cool to room temperature under 100% N2 gas atmosphere. Thereafter, add and dissolve cysteine, adjust pH to 6.5 and dispense under same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. After sterilization add magnesium chloride and calcium chloride from sterile anoxic stock solutions autoclaved under 100% N2 gas and vitamins from a filter-sterilized stock solution prepared under N2 gas.
2 Note: For agar medium add 20.00 g/l agar, 5.00 g/l CaCO3, and 2.00 g/l soluble starch.
