The effects of sodium tetradecyl sulfate (STS), beta-phenethyl alcohol (PEA), and p-nitrophenylglycerol (PNPG) on motility, swarming, flagellation, and growth of Proteus were examined. Growth-inhibitory concentrations (GIC) and swarming-inhibitory concentrations (SIC) were determined. A characterization of the swarming-inhibitory efficacy of these
