1004   FRESHWATER MEDIUM FOR SOIL AOA

Basic FWM solution:
NaCl  1.0     g
KCl  0.5     g
MgCl2·6H2O  0.4     g
KH2PO4  0.2     g
CaCl2·2H2O  0.1     g
Distilled water  1.0     L
Autoclave Basic FWM solution and aseptically add the following solutions (autoclaved or *filter-sterilized) in the given order:
Modified trace element mixture (see below)  1.0     ml
Vitamin solution* (see below)  1.0     ml
7.5 mM EDTA·Na·Fe(III) solution* (pH 7.0)  1.0     ml
1 M NaHCO3 solution*  2.0     ml
HEPES solution (see below)  10.0     ml
1 M NH4Cl solution  1.0     ml
1 M Sodium pyruvate solution*  1.0     ml
Use glass or polystyrene containers for cultivation. Cultivate in the dark without shaking.
Modified trace element mixture:
HCl (25%)  12.5     ml
H3BO3  30.0     mg
MnCl2·4H2O  100.0     mg
CoCl2·6H2O  190.0     mg
NiCl2·6H2O  24.0     mg
CuCl2·2H2O  2.0     mg
ZnSO4·7H2O  144.0     mg
Na2MoO4·2H2O  36.0     mg
Distilled water  987.0     ml
Vitamin solution:
Biotin  20.0     mg
Folic acid  20.0     mg
Pyridoxine·HCl  100.0     mg
Thiamine·HCl  50.0     mg
Riboflavin  50.0     mg
Nicotinic acid  50.0     mg
DL-Calcium pantothenate  50.0     mg
Vitamin B12  1.0     mg
p-Aminobenzoic acid  50.0     mg
Choline chloride  2.0     g
Distilled water  1.0     L
Adjust pH to 7.0 with KOH.
HEPES solution:
NaOH  12.0     g
HEPES (free acid)  119.2     g
Dissolve NaOH in 300 ml distilled water. While stirring vigorously, slowly add HEPES until completely dissolved. Fill up to 450 ml with distilled water. If 1 ml of this solution is added to 100 ml of the medium (containing all additive but HEPES), pH should be around 7.6 at 30ÂșC. Otherwise, adjust pH of the HEPES solution with 10 N NaOH or conc. HCl. Finally fill up to 500 ml with distilled water.

[Note]
Adjust pH to 7.0 for JCM 31640.
