Preparation
- Dissolve 100 g defatted ground beef granules and 40 g of Mixture A powder in 980 mL of Milli-Q water and mix well
- Boil the broth in a water bath or microwave for 15 minutes, then cool the mixture under an anaerobic gas atmosphere (e.g., N₂ -80% / H₂ -10% / CO₂ -10%, or N₂ -100%).
- Add 2.5 g of Mixture B powder and 20 mL of Stock C
- Adjust the pH to 7.0.
- Dispense 7 mL into Hungate tubes or 1/5–1/4 volume of anaerobic culture bottles containing meat particles (1 part meat to 4–5 parts fluid) under the same anaerobic gas phase.
- Autoclave at 121 °C for 30 minutes.
For a solid medium, add 15.0g Agar. For a semi-solid medium, add 0.5g Agar. Dissolve together with Mixture A, to make 1000 mL of medium.
