An inexpensive method for laboratory growth of anaerobic bacteria, replacing traditional anaerobic chambers and jars and allowing small-scale growth of bacterial cultures in various types of laboratory plates and test tubes. It also enables storage of small quantity oxygen-sensitive substances as well as real-time measurements of anaerobic chemical, biochemical and microbiological reactions using conventional microplate readers.
