# Ingredient Concentration Ontology Notes
1 HEPES
C8H18N2O4S 238.309 g/mol
14.1714 G_PER_L CHEBI:42334
2-[4-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazin-1-yl]ethanesulfonic acid
P1 adds 9.92 g HEPES to a 700 ml main solution.
2 Bacto agar 18 G_PER_L P1 adds 18 g/L washed Bacto agar.

Preparation

  1. Mix Artificial sea water (ASW) 2x, HEPES, and a magnetic stir bar, then fill to 650 ml with MilliQ water.
  2. Wash the Bacto agar with ultrapure water, allow the agar to settle, remove the overlaying water, and repeat the wash twice.
  3. Directly before autoclaving, mix agar and liquid, autoclave, cool to 60 C, and hold at 55 C.
  4. Add sterile Trace element solution SL-8, Selenite-tungstate solution II, phosphate, ammonium, glucose, cellobiose, yeast extract, Casamino acids, Tryptone peptone, magnesium chloride, and magnesium sulfate stocks.
  5. Adjust to pH 7.5 with sterile 1 M HCl or 1 M NaOH, then add sterile MilliQ water to a final volume of 700 ml while avoiding bubbles.
