Abstract

A medium designed for detection of motility, indole, and ornithine decarboxylase production in one tube was devised and evaluated. Results, using 182 strains of Enterobacteriaceae, were the same as obtained with commonly used standard methods, although 11 of 87 positive indole tests were weak with the new medium.
