Dispense medium under the same gas atmosphere into anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclave at 121°C for 15 min. Add yeast extract, fructose, vitamins (sterilized by filtration), cysteine, and sulfide from sterile stock solutions prepared under a 100% N2 gas atmosphere and bicarbonate from a sterile stock solution prepared under an 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas atmosphere. Adjust the pH of the complete medium to 5.9! For DSM 13641: Replace fructose with 5.00 g/l sucrose added to the autoclaved medium from a sterile anoxic stock solution and increase amount of NaHCO3 to 2.50 g/l. Adjust pH of complete medium to 6.9! For DSM 115981: Omit Yeast extract.
