Trace elements increase replicability of microbial growth

Trace elements are often omitted from chemically defined growth media. From established properties of trace elements, we deduce that this omission makes experiments unnecessarily sensitive to unavoidable contamination with trace elements. We confirm this experimentally by growing 11 bacterial strain...
