The protocols demonstrated in this video can be reproduced in any lab in the world. In combination, they represent a systematic and powerful approach to characterizing bacterial flagellum motility. Motility is a crucial aspect of bacterial dissemi

Many bacteria use flagella-driven motility to navigate their environment and colonize favorable surroundings both individually and as a collective. Demonstrated here is the use of three established methods that exploit motility as a selection tool to identify components/pathways contributing to swimming and swarming motility.
