SIM Medium 500g

SIM Medium is used for the differentiation of microorganisms on the basis of hydrogen sulfide production, indole production, and motility in a laboratory setting. SIM Medium is not intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions in humans.

Preparation

1. Suspend 30 g of the medium in one liter of purified water.
2. Heat with frequent agitation and boil for one minute to completely dissolve the medium.
3. Autoclave at 121ºC for 15 minutes.
4. Cool to 45-50ºC.
