Preparation

  1. Use lean beef or horse meat; remove fat and connective tissue before grinding. Mix meat, distilled water, and N NaOH and bring to a boil while stirring.
  2. Cool to room temperature, skim fat off the surface, and filter, retaining both meat particles and filtrate. Add enough distilled water to restore 1.0 L of filtrate.
  3. Add peptone, yeast extract, K2HPO4, any glucose supplement, and 0.025% resazurin solution to the filtrate, then boil and cool.
  4. Add L-cysteine HCl and adjust to pH 7.0.
  5. Under 97% nitrogen / 3% hydrogen, dispense 7 ml medium over one part meat particles to four to five parts fluid per tube. Cap with butyl rubber stoppers under N2/H2 and autoclave for 15 minutes under fast exhaust.
