Autoclave the stock solutions of the individual metals, except 0.1 M FeCl3 in 1/100 volume conc HCl. A brief precipitate may appeared upon addition of Na2SeO3, however it will redissolve rapidly. Store at room temperature
When making growth media, add the metals mix before NPS. If NPS is already present when 1000x metals mix is added, a precipitate forms which disperses but retains a light turbidity. If the metals are diluted to near their final concentration before NPS is added, the medium remains clear. The metals also precipitate and disperse or redissolve when added to ZY, a precipitate caused by yeast extract. Although apparently not a problem, the precipitate could be avoided by diluting the metals in the water before dissolving the yeast extract in making ZY.
