# J987: CEJFB1T MEDIUM ## Main sol. J987 1 g NH4Cl 0.5 g K2HPO4 0.1 g CaCl2 x 2 H2O 0.8 g KCl 0.5 g Sodium acetate 200 g NaCl 1 g Yeast extract (BD-Difco) 0.5 g Tryptone (BD-Difco) 1 ml **Trace element solution** 0.5 g L-Cysteine HCl x H2O 0.5 mg Resazurin 855 ml Distilled water 1. Mix components thoroughly, adjust pH to 7.6 with KOH and autoclave under a N2-CO2 (4:1, v/v) gas mixture. After cooling, add the following solutions from anaerobic stocks (autoclaved or *filter-sterilized): 25 ml NaHCO3 (*, 8%) 20 ml Glucose (1 M) 50 ml MgSO4 x 7 H2O (10%) 50 ml Tryptone (10%) 2. Aseptically distribute the medium into culture vessels under a stream of N2-CO2 (4:1, v/v), and seal with butyl rubber stoppers. Prior to inoculation, add per liter the following solution from an anaerobic stock (autoclave and store under a N2 atmosphere). 8 ml Na2S x 9 H2O (5%) ## 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
