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
What gas does durham tube trap in this test?
Name media & Reagents.
-Nitrogen
-Media=Nitrate Broth
-Reagents= Nitrate A
Nitrate B
Zinc & HCl
In the nitrate respiration test if after all possible reagents, the media never changes color, what does this mean for the bacteria?
Both nitrate respiration and Denitrification occured.
Name this procedure & media
Kirby Bauer Method
Media= Mueller Hinton Agar
