# 507b: CARBOXYDOCELLA MANGANICA MEDIUM


## Main sol. 507b

0.33	g	KCl	
0.52	g	MgCl2 x 6 H2O	
0.29	g	CaCl2 x 2 H2O	
0.33	g	NH4Cl	
0.33	g	KH2PO4	
10	ml	**Trace element solution SL-4**	
2.5	g	Na2CO3	
1	g	Na-pyruvate	
0.2	g	Yeast extract	
1	ml	**Wolin's vitamin solution (10x)**	
1000	ml	Distilled water	

1. Dissolve ingredients except carbonate, pyruvate, yeast extract, and vitamins, then sparge medium with 100% CO2 gas for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Add carbonate and adjust pH to 6.0 - 6.5, then dispense medium under 100% CO2 gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Add pyruvate, yeast extract and vitamins from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas atmosphere. Stock solutions of pyruvate and vitamins are sterilized by filtration. After completing the medium adjust pH to 6.5 with a sterile anoxic stock solution of 1 N NaOH.


## Trace element solution SL-4

0.5	g	Na2-EDTA	
0.2	g	FeSO4 x 7 H2O	
0.1	g	ZnSO4 x 7 H2O	
0.03	g	MnCl2 x 4 H2O	
0.3	g	H3BO3	
0.2	g	CoCl2 x 6 H2O	
0.01	g	CuCl2 x 2 H2O	
0.02	g	NiCl2 x 6 H2O	
0.03	g	Na2MoO4 x 2 H2O	
1000	ml	Distilled water	

1. First dissolve EDTA in distilled water and adjust pH to 7.0 using 2 N NaOH; then add other compounds.
