Solution A 952.00 ml Solution B 30.00 ml Solution C 10.00 ml Solution D 1.00 ml Solution E 10.00 ml 1. Solution A is sparged with 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas mixture to reach a pH below 6 (at least 30 min), then distributed under the same gas atmosphere in anoxic Hungate-type tubes or serum vials and autoclaved. Solutions C and E are autoclaved separately under 100% N2 gas. Solution B is autoclaved under 80% N2 and 20% CO2 gas atmosphere. Solution D is prepared under 100% N2 gas atmosphere and sterilized by filtration. To complete the medium appropriate amounts of solutions B to E are added to the sterile solution A in the sequence as indicated. Final pH of the medium should be 7.1 - 7.4. 2. Note: Addition of 10 - 20 mg sodium dithionite per liter (e.g. from 5% (w/v) solution, freshly prepared under N2 and filter-sterilized) may stimulate growth at the beginning. For transfers use 5 - 10% (v/v) inoculum. For DSM 9120, DSM 10141, DSM 17456, DSM 19275: Supplement medium with 1.00 g/l yeast extract added to the autoclaved medium from a sterile anoxic stock solution. For DSM 11974: Supplement medium with 1.00 ml/l seven vitamins solution (see medium 503) added to the autoclaved medium from an anoxic stock solution sterilized by filtration. For DSM 14728: Supplement medium with 0.50 g/l Na-acetate added to the autoclaved medium from a sterile anoxic stock solution. For DSM 14982: Supplement medium with 5.00 g/l Na2S2O3 x 5 H2O added to the autoclaved medium from an anoxic stock solution sterilized by filtration. For DSM 16109, DSM 17464: Supplement medium with 2.00 g/l Casamino acids (DIFCO) and 2.00 g/l Trypticase peptone (BD BBL) added to the autoclaved medium from sterile anoxic stock solutions.
