as glucose-salts, as well as rich, chemically complex media such as brain heart infusion agar and tryptic soy broth. However, these general growth media may permit the growth unwanted microorganisms from clinical or environmental samples that are not relevant to the purpose of the microbiological examination.

SULFIDE-INDOLE-MOTILITY (SIM) TEST
crcooper01.people.ysu.eduFinally, indole production is detected in SIM medium due to the presence of casein peptone, an ingredient rich in tryptophan. Organisms that possess the enzyme tryptophanase degrade tryptophan to generate indole, pyruvic acid, and ammonia. The latter two are used for a cell’s nutritional needs, whereas indole is not and accumulates in the medium.
