Titanium (III) Citrate as a Nontoxic Oxidation-Reduction Buffering System for the Culture of Obligate Anaerobes

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.
