Motility Test
~0.4 mins read
Motility is the ability of an organism to move by itself by means of propeller like flagella unique to bacteria or by special fibrillation that produce a gliding form of motility.   
  Its principle; motility by bacterium is mostly demonstrated in a semi solid agar medium, in the medium,  bacteria swam and give a diffuse spreading growth easily recognized by the naked eye.  The medium used is sim medium(sulphide indo motility medium)  which is a combination differential medium that test for Sulphur reduction, indo production and motility. 
  The medium has a very soft consistency that allows mobile bacteria to migrate readily through them causing cloudiness.
