523   METHYLOTHERMUS SUBTERRANEUS MEDIUM

NaCl  1.0     g
KH2PO4  0.014   g
CaCl2·2H2O  0.08    g
MgSO4·7H2O  0.34    g
MgCl2·6H2O  0.42    g
KCl  0.033   g
NH4Cl  0.5     g
Na2SiO3·9H2O  0.5     g
Fe2(SO4)3·xH2O  20.0     mg
Na2SeO3·5H2O  0.5     mg
NiCl2·6H2O  0.5     mg
Trace mineral solution (see below)  3.0     ml
Distilled water  1.0     L
Mix components thoroughly and autoclave. After cooling, add the following solutions (filter-sterilized) to the medium:
Trace vitamins (see Medium No. 197)  1.0     ml
8% NaHCO3 solution  2.0     ml
1 mM CuSO4 solution  1.0     ml
Then, distribute the medium into culture vessels (leave >80% gas phase, by volume) and seal with butyl rubber stoppers. Replace the gas phase with N2-CO2-CH4-O2 (40:15:40:5, by volume) and pressurize to 100 kPa with the same gas mixture. Check final pH of the medium to be around 6.0.
Trace mineral solution:
Nitrilotriacetic acid  1.5     g
MnSO4·xH2O  0.5     g
CoSO4·7H2O  0.18    g
ZnSO4·7H2O  0.18    g
CuSO4·5H2O  0.01    g
AlK(SO4)2  0.02    g
H3BO3  0.01    g
Na2MoO4·2H2O  0.01    g
Distilled water  1.0     L
Dissolve nitrilotriacetic acid and adjust pH to 6.5 with KOH. Then proceed to add minerals. Adjust final pH to 7.0.
