# J545: DESULFOTOMACULUM Lam5 MEDIUM ## Main sol. J545 0.3 g KH2PO4 0.3 g K2HPO4 1 g NH4Cl 1 g NaCl 3 g Na2SO4 0.1 g KCl 0.1 g CaCl2 0.5 g MgCl2 x 6 H2O 0.1 g Yeast extract 1 g Sodium lactate 10 ml **Trace element solution** 2 g NaHCO3 0.5 g L-Cysteine HCl x H2O 0.4 g Na2S x 9 H2O 1 mg Resazurin 1000 ml Distilled water 1. Mix ingredients except NaHCO3, L-cysteine x HCl x H2O and Na2S x 9H2O and adjust pH to 7.2. Distribute the medium into tubes (e.g., 5 ml of the medium in the Hungate tubes) under a N2 x CO2 gas mixture (4:1, v/v), seal with butyl rubber stoppers and autoclave. After cooling, add solutions of NaHCO3 [5%, filter-sterilized and stored under a N2-CO2 (4:1, v/v) gas mixture], L-cysteine x HCl x H2O and Na2S x 9H2O (5%, autoclaved and stored under N2) to the medium. ## Trace element solution 12.5 ml HCl (25%) 2.1 g FeSO4 x 7 H2O 30 mg H3BO3 100 mg MnCl2 x 4 H2O 190 mg CoCl2 x 6 H2O 24 mg NiCl2 x 6 H2O 2 mg CuCl2 x 2 H2O 144 mg ZnSO4 x 7 H2O 36 mg Na2MoO4 x 2 H2O 987 ml Distilled water
