Directions per Liter
Dissolve 10..4g in 900ml of ddH2O, stirring until completely solubilized. Do NOT heat. Add 2g sodium bicarbonate with stirring. Adjust pH of the medium to 0.1-0.3 pH units below the desired pH. Add additional water to bring the solution to 1L. Filter-sterilize using a 0.22um membrane. Aliquot into sterile containers.
Note
It may be necessary to lower the pH to 4.0 with 1N HCl to completely dissolve this product. After it has dissolved completely, the pH can be raised to 7.2 with 1N NaOH prior to the addition of sodium bicarbonate.
Storage and Stability
Store powdered media at RT. Stable for 12 months after receipt. Opened bottles should be capped tightly and kept in a dark, low humidity environment. Prepared media should be kept at 4°C and used within a short period of time.
