Dissolve the following in 800 ml MQ H2O.
8 g NaCl
0.2 g KCl
1.44 g Na2HPO4
0.24 g KH2PO4
Adjust the pH.
Add MQ H2O to 1L.
Sterilize to autoclave.
Store at RT.
Make 1L of PBS pH 7 and 1L PBS pH 8, then mix accordingly to obtain desired pH.
For soils, will want PBS at pH ~7.4.
300 ml PBS pH 7 + 200 ml PBS pH 8 = 0.5 L PBS pH 7.4.
