Dissolve sodium chloride and hydrogenphospate, then sparge solution with 100% N2 gas for 30 -45 min to make it anoxic. Add and dissolve carbonates, adjust pH to 10, dispense under 100% N2 gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. After sterilization add ammonium chloride, magnesium chloride, trace elements, yeast extract, lactate, sulfite, vitamins, and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solution prepared under 100% N2 gas. Stock solutions of sulfite (freshly prepared) and vitamins should be sterilized by filtration. ## Trace elements solution (Pfennig & Lippert,1966) 5 g EDTA 2.2 g FeSO4 x 7 H2O 0.1 g ZnSO4 x 7 H2O 0.03 g MnCl2 x 4 H2O 0.03 g H3BO3 0.2 g CoCl2 x 6 H2O 0.03 g CuCl2 x 2 H2O 0.03 g NiCl2 x 6 H2O 0.03 g Na2MoO4 x 2 H2O 1000 ml Distilled water 1. pH 3.0-4.0 ## Selenite-tungstate solution 0.5 g NaOH 3 mg Na2SeO3 x 5 H2O 4 mg Na2WO4 x 2 H2O 1000 ml Distilled water ## Wolin's vitamin solution (10x) 20 mg Biotin 20 mg Folic acid 100 mg Pyridoxine hydrochloride 50 mg Thiamine HCl 50 mg Riboflavin 50 mg Nicotinic acid 50 mg Calcium D-(+)-pantothenate 1 mg Vitamin B12 50 mg p-Aminobenzoic acid 50 mg (DL)-alpha-Lipoic acid 1000 ml Distilled water
