Bacterial swimming in porous gels exhibits intermittent run motility with active turns and mechanical trapping

Fig. 1

Trajectories reveal intermittent run-motility of bacteria in agar gel. (A) Trajectory of a bacterium in \(0.25 \,\%\) agar, with the corresponding speed as a function of time as an inset. Runs are indicated in blue. (B) MSD of P. putida
