151 PYROCOCCUS MEDIUM
| Salt base solution (see below) | 1.0 | L |
| Trace minerals (see below) | 10.0 | ml |
| Citric acid | 5.0 | mg |
| Yeast extract (BD-Difco) | 1.0 | g |
| Bacto peptone (BD-Difco) | 5.0 | g |
| Sulfur (powder) | 30.0 | g |
| Na2S·9H2O | 0.5 | g |
| Resazurin | 1.0 | mg |
Mix ingredients, except sulfur and Na2S·9H2O, and adjust pH to 6.5 with H2SO4. Sterilize by filtration under a N2 atmosphere. Steam sulfur for 3 hr on each of 3 successive days. Neutralize Na2S·9H2O as a 5% solution, and autoclave under a N2 atmosphere. Aseptically and anaerobically add sterile sulfur to the medium. Prior to inoculation, add the sterile Na2S·9H2O solution, and readjust pH to 6.5, if necessary.
