  2. Heat with frequent agitation and boil for one minutes to completely dissolve the medium.
  3. Cool to 45-50°C and add 20 mL of the Iodine-Potassium Iodide Solution to the prepared Tetrathionate Broth Base. If preparing solution, add 6 grams Iodine + 5 grams Potassium Iodide in 20 mL of purified water.
