Dissolve ingredients (except yeast extract, Casamino acids, vitamins, carbonate, hydrogenphosphate and sulfide), bring medium to the boil, then cool to room temperature under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture. Dispense under same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. After sterilization add yeast extract, Casamino acids, hydrogenphosphate and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas and carbonate from a sterile anoxic stock solution prepared under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture. Vitamins are prepared under 100% N2 gas atmosphere and strerilized by filtration. Adjust pH of complete medium to 7.0, if necessay. ## Trace element solution SL-10 10 ml HCl (25%) 1.5 g FeCl2 x 4 H2O 70 mg ZnCl2 100 mg MnCl2 x 4 H2O 6 mg H3BO3 190 mg CoCl2 x 6 H2O 2 mg CuCl2 x 2 H2O 24 mg NiCl2 x 6 H2O 36 mg Na2MoO4 x 2 H2O 990 ml Distilled water 1. First dissolve FeCl2 in the HCl, then dilute in water, add and dissolve the other salts. Finally make up to 1000.00 ml. ## 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
