Description

Description: The Oxoid™ S.I.M. Medium (Sulphide Indole Motility) is a dehydrated culture medium used to help identify bacteria based on three simple characteristics:

  • Motility: Can the bacteria move on their own?
  • Indole Production: Can they break down certain proteins and produce indole?
  • Hydrogen Sulfide (H₂S) Production: Do they produce a gas that turns part of the medium black?
  1. This powdered medium is used to prepare tubes that test if bacteria move, digest proteins, and produce gas.
  2. Supplied in a pack of 50, each portion weighs 9.5–10.5g for easy preparation.
  3. Storage Temperature: 2°C to 25°C

Benefits:

  • Reliable identification of enteric bacteria.
  • Three tests in one medium, saving time and resources.
  • Essential for clinical and research microbiology.

Applications:

  • Clinical diagnostics for gut bacteria.
  • Microbiology research and teaching.
  • Food and water safety testing.

Storage Instructions:

  • Store in a cool, dry place at 10–30 °C.
