| 3 g | Potassium phosphate, KH<sub>2</sub>PO<sub>4</sub> |
| 0.5 g | Sodium chloride, NaCl |
| 1 g | Ammonium chloride, NH<sub>4</sub>Cl |

Add dH<sub>2</sub>O to *500* mL

|  *1L*  | *Component*  |
| 16 g | Agar |

Autoclave media. Once the bottles are cooled to 55°C, mix the agar and M9 components.

Next, add the following sterile ingredients:

|  *1L*  | *Component*  |
| 1 ml | 1M Magnesium sulfate, MgSO<sub>4</sub> |
