*%RED%Note: When making these plates it is necessary to prepare and autoclave the 3 main parts (salts, agar, and sugar) separately.%ENDCOLOR%*

|  *1L*  |  *1.5L*  |  *Component*  |  *MW*  |
|  7 g  |  10.5 g  | Potassium Phosphate (dibasic, trihydrate) HK<sub>2</sub>PO<sub>4</sub> (H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>3</sub> |  MW 228.17 |  
|  2 g  | 3 g | Potassium Phosphate (monobasic) H<sub>2</sub>KPO<sub>4</sub> | MW 136.07 |
|  1 g  | 1.5 g | Ammonium Sulfate (NH<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub> SO<sub>4</sub>| MW 132.08 |
|  0.5 g  | 0.75 g | Sodium Citrate (trisodium, dihydrate) Na<sub>3</sub>C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>5</sub>O<sub>7</sub>  (H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>2</sub>| MW 294.10 |
|  333 ml    | 500 ml | dH<sub>2</sub>O | |
Autoclave. <br>

Next, prepare the agar: <br>

|  *1L*  |  *1.5L*  |  *Component*  | 
| 16 g | 24 g | Agar |
| 1 ml | 1.5 ml | Antifoam (5%) |
| 333 ml | 500 ml | dH<sub>2</sub>O |
Autoclave. <br>

Next, prepare the sugar (0.2%): <br>

|  *1L*  |  *1.5L*  |  *Component*  | 
| 4 g | 6 g | Glucose (or other sugar) |
|  333 ml | 500 ml | dH<sub>2</sub>O |
Autoclave. <br>

After the 3 parts have been autoclaved, combine the contents of the three flasks together and add the following stock solutions: <br>

|  *1L*  |  *1.5L*  |  *Component*  |
| 1.0 ml | 1.5 ml | 10% Magnesium Sulfate MgSO<sub>4</sub> (autoclaved)  |
| 1.0 ml | 1.5 ml | 0.2% Thiamin (vitamin B1) (filter sterilized) |
