Description

B.C. Motility Test HiVeg™ Medium is used for cultivation and examination of motility of Bacillus cereus strains. It is used for cultivation and examination of motility of Bacillus cereus strains. B. C. Motility Test HiVeg Medium is prepared by replacing Casein enzymic hydrolysate with HiVeg hydrolysate. This medium is inoculated by stabbing down the center with 3 mm loopful of culture and incubated at18-24 hours at 30°C. Rhizoid strains of B. cereus var mycoides produce characteristic fuzzy growth in semisolid media dueto expansion of the filamentous growth but they are not motile by means of flagella. This medium is prepared by replacing animal peptones with vegetable defined peptones to avoid BSE/TSE/GMO risk.
