Name this test.
Name the media & reagent used. |
-Starch Hydrolysis test
Media= Starch Agar Reagent= Iodine |
|
What are we testing for?
Which one is positive-top or bottom? |
-To see if amylase is present in the bacteria.
-Bottom - Agar around the bacteria is NOT black (has a halo around bacteria) |
|
Name this test? Name media. Top or bottom positive?
|
-Lipid Hydrolysis
-Spirit Blue Lipid Agar -Top - intense blue around bacteria |
|
Name exoenzyme involved. Which one negative and why?
|
-Lipase
-Top left - no intense blue around bacteria b/c not breaking down fat b/c doesnt have lipase so negative |
|
What is polymer hydrolysis?
|
Breakdown of polymer to monomer.
|
|
What's an exoenzyme?
|
Enzyme that bacteria produce that break down large molecules into smaller molecules.
|
|
Name Test, media, Exoenzyme & Reagent.
|
-Gelatin Hydrolysis
-media= Gelatin Nutrient Agar -Exo= Gelatinase -Reagent= Chloride |
|
How does Chloride work in Gelatin Hydrolysis test?
|
Precipitates the protein (makes clump up)
|
|
Where is casein found in nature?
|
Cow's milk
|
|
Which one is positive and how can you tell?
|
Top right- b/c no white around bacteria b/c gelatinase is present and broke down the gelatin in the agar (clear halo around bacteria)
|
|
Name test, media, reagent, and exoenzyme.
|
-Casein Hydrolysis
-Skim milk nutrient agar -no reagent -Casease |
|
Which one is positive?
|
Top left b/c no white around bacteria (Clear halo around bacteria)
|
|
What molecule is hydrolyzed?
Name reagent and media. |
-exonuclease
-no reagent -DNase Agar (Methyl Green) |
|
Which result is postivie and why? What does a negative result MEAN?
|
No green around bacteria (whiteish tent around bacteria (halo))
-neg result means exonuclease was NOT released |
|
What group of organisms is the nuclease test helpful in identifying?
|
Food poisoning
(b/c they are thermostable and only nuclease survives) |
|
Which one is Alpha, beta and non-hemolytic?
|
|
|
Name media, exoenzyme & reagent. what does neg result MEAN?
|
-blood agar
-hemolysin -no reagent -RBC's are not being brokendown |
|
Name media. what does + test look like and what does a - result MEAN?
|
-Phenol Red (sugar name) Broth
-+ result is yellow with or without air bubble -neg means not acidic (no fermintation is happening) |
|
Name media. Name piece of equipment used to inoculate. What does neg result look like?
|
-Kligler Iron Agar
-inoculating needle -Black where bacteria was put |
|
Which method uses an organic molecule to make hydrogen sulfide?
|
Dissimilation
|
|
Which method uses an inorganic molecule to make hydrogen sulfide?
|
Reduction
|
|
What specifically is responsible for forming the color in a positive result?
|
Hydrogen sulfide from bacteria reacting to the iron in media
|
|
Name media, reagent and piece of equipment used to inoculate.
|
media=SIM media
Reagent=Indole Inoculating needle |
|
Which result is positive and what does that mean?
|
on right with purple/pink floating. means bacteria produces indole
|
|
Name media, reagent. What's purpose of this test?
|
media=MRVP Broth
Reagent= Methyl Red Purpose= if glucose added to bacteria will it make acid. |
|
What does V stand for in IMViC?
|
Voges Proskauer
|
|
Define Coliform
|
Gram negative enteric Bacillus
|
|
Name this test and its purpose.
|
Voges Proskauer
to see if bacteria can make 2, 3 butanediol and Acetoin as end products (2gether). |
|
Name media & reagent.
|
MRVP
VP-A & VP-B |
|
What does a positive result look like for this test?
|
Red
|
|
Name test & purpose.
Name media & Reagent |
Citrate Test to see if bacteria can use citrate as only source of carbon.
Media= Simmons Citrate Agar No reagent |
|
Which result is positive and what does that mean?
|
Left (blue) which means that bacteria CAN use citrate as only source of carbon.
|
|
Which 2 IMViC reaction labs use the inoculating needle as equipment vs. the loop?
|
Indole and citrate test
|
|
|
Reagent = hydrogen peroxide
+ is one with bubbles which means that bacteria produces Catalase the bubbles are from catalase breaking down the hydrogen peroxide. |
|
Name this test. Name reagent & which result is positive & what it means.
|
Oxidase Test
Reagent= Oxidase Reagent + result is blue which means the bacteria produce oxidase which means it contains cytochrome C which means member of ETC & is capable of respiration |
