# 720: DESULFITOBACTERIUM HAFNIENSE MEDIUM


## Main sol. 720

1	g	NH4Cl	
0.1	g	NaCl	
0.1	g	MgCl2 x 6 H2O	
0.05	g	CaCl2 x 2 H2O	
0.4	g	K2HPO4 x 3 H2O	
1	ml	**Trace element solution SL-11**	
1	ml	**Selenite-tungstate solution**	
1	g	Yeast extract	
0.5	ml	Sodium resazurin (0.1% w/v)	
2.6	g	NaHCO3	
2.5	g	Na-pyruvate	
1.25	g	Na2S2O3 x 5 H2O	
1	ml	**Wolin's vitamin solution (10x)**	
0.3	g	Na2S x 9 H2O	
1000	ml	Distilled water	

1. Dissolve ingredients (except bicarbonate, pyruvate, thiosulfate, vitamins and sulfide), then sparge medium with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture for 30 - 45 min to make it anoxic. Add bicarbonate and adjust pH to 7.0 - 7.2, then dispense under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave. Prior to use add pyruvate, thiosulfate, vitamins, and sulfide from sterile anoxic stock solutions prepared under 100% N2 gas. Stock solutions of pyruvate and vitamins are sterilized by filtration.


## Trace element solution SL-11

5.2	g	Na2-EDTA x 2 H2O	
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	
1000	ml	Distilled water	

1. Dissolve EDTA in 800 ml distilled water, adjust pH to 7 using 2 N NaOH and add ferrous chloride. After ferrous chloride has dissolved add other compounds. Finally adjust pH to 6.0 and bring volume to 1000 ml. 


## Selenite-tungstate solution
