Description
Differentiate enteric gram-negative bacilli based on sulfide production, indole formation, and motility using SIM Medium (Sulfide, Indole, Motility).
Differentiate enteric gram-negative bacilli based on sulfide production, indole formation, and motility using Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ SIM Medium (Sulfide, Indole, Motility).
