Titanium (III) citrate as a nontoxic oxidation-reduction buffering system for the culture of obligate anaerobes

A J Zehnder et al. Science. .

Abstract

An oxidation-reduction buffering system based on titanium(III) citrate eliminates any traces of oxygen in a culture medium, serves as an indicator for low oxidation-reduction potentials, and prevents the growth of facultative anaerobes, which frequently contaminate anaerobic cultures.
