Weigh 66.0 g powder from bottle A, take 10 ml Tween 40 (bottle B) [1], heat and dissolve well in 800 ml distilled water or MQ water, then make up to 1000 ml, aliquot if necessary. Autoclave at 121°C for 15min.
[Optional] Add 50 mg of filter-sterilised Chloramphenicol (or other suitable antibiotics for selection) per 1000 ml of the culture medium. Mix well to be prepared for use.
[1] Before adding Tween 40, it is suggested to be warmed in a water bath at ~ 50°C for 10 minutes, to reduce the viscosity and make it easy to operate.
Note: This medium contains much oleic acid, and there will be a small amount of flocculent precipitate after sterilisation.
