Preparation Method:
Dissolve 37.5 g of the powder in 1000 mL of deionized water. Adjust the pH to 6.8. Dispense into appropriate containers. Sterilize by autoclaving at 121°C for 15 minutes.
To prepare a solid medium, add 15 g of agar before sterilization.
For Pre-Reduced Modified Reinforced Clostridial Broth:
Dissolve all components except L-cysteine hydrochloride in water. Boil the medium to drive off oxygen. Cool under an anaerobic gas environment. Once cooled, add L-cysteine hydrochloride and adjust pH to 6.8. Dispense under the same anaerobic conditions and sterilize at 121°C for 15 minutes.
Note
The Modified Reinforced Clostridial Medium sold by Biofargo uses the exact same formula as ATCC Medium 2107 and BD 218081, making it a perfect substitute for BD 218081.
