The TSI slant is a test tube that contains agar, a pH-sensitive dye , 1% lactose, 1% sucrose, 0.1% glucose, [2] and sodium thiosulfate and ferrous sulfate or ferrous ammonium sulfate. All of these ingredients are mixed together, heated to sterility, and allowed to solidify in the test tube at a slanted angle.
A TSI slant is often used to distinguish nonfermenting Pseudomonas species from enteric pathogens in faecal specimens. [citation needed] When P. aeruginosa is isolated from a normally sterile site (blood, bone, deep collections), it is generally considered dangerous, and almost always requires treatment.

Inoculation of a TSI slant shows an alkaline slant and acidic, but with no gas, or H 2 S production. Following incubation on SIM, the culture appears nonmotile with no H 2 S production. Addition of Kovac's reagent to the SIM tube following growth typically indicates no indole formation (serotypes 2, 7, and 8 produce indole [5]).
