The sulfide solution is prepared in a 250 ml screw-capped bottle with a butyl rubber septum and a magnetic stirrer. The solution is bubbled with nitrogen gas, closed and autoclaved for 15 min. at 121°C. After cooling to room temperature the pH is adjusted to about 7.0 by adding of sterile 2 N H2SO4 drop-wise with a syringe without opening the bottle. Appearance of a yellow color indicates the drop of pH to about 8. The solution should be stirred continuously to avoid precipitation of elemental sulfur. The final solution should be clear and is yellow in color.

For dissolving adjust pH to about 3 with 1 N HCl.

We recommend that liquid and solid media be made by autoclaving the Na2CO3 separately, otherwise the high pH will cause ammonia to be lost. When making media solidified with agar (20 g/l) the agar should also not be autoclaved with the Na2CO3 otherwise the agar will be hydrolysed. When mixing the ingredients for media cool all components to about 55 °C otherwise hydrolysis of the agar may occur. Adjust pH after autoclaving by adding the NaHCO3 (8 %) to pH 9.0. Please note that the NaHCO3 solution should be filter sterilized
