Understanding through into genetic risk factors for various illnesses in the human population come from mouse research. Manipulation of the mouse genome is quite simple, for example, adding or deleting genes to better understand their function in the body.

The majority of mice and rats used throughout medical studies are inbred, which means they are genetically virtually similar, making the outcomes of medical trials more consistent.

The term "IMViC" is an acronym for each of these tests. "I" is for indole test; "M" is for methyl red test; "V" is for Voges-Proskauer test, and "C" is for citrate test. The lower case "i" is merely for "in" as the Citrate test requires coliform samples to be placed "in Citrate". Triple sugar iron test (TSI), Urease Test and Malonate Test are also included in this test.

For each of the tests, different reagents are added  to the species are inoculated and tested.

For Salmonella sp. the IMViC Test result is:

Methyl red - Positive

Voges-Proskauer - negative
