Preparation
- Mix components thoroughly, except NaHCO3, and adjust pH to 6.5.
- Bring to a boil for 5-10 sec, then, cool down under a stream of H2-CO2 (80:20, v/v) and add NaHCO3 to the medium.
- Dispense the medium into suitable culture vessels (e.g., 5 ml medium in Hungate tubes) under the same gas mixture and seal with butyl rubber stoppers.
- After autoclaving, stand the medium overnight.
- Aseptically and anaerobically add per liter the following solutions (autoclaved and stored under a N2 atmosphere): Adjust pH of the medium to 6.7-7.0, if necessary.
- Pressurize the inoculated bottles to 200 kPa H2-CO2 (80:20, v/v).
