Transcribed Image Text:**Title: Understanding TSI Slant Results**
**Instructions:**
Using the correct grammar, state the interpretation of the following results from a Triple Sugar Iron (TSI) slant:
**Questions and Interpretations:**
1. **Result: A/A**
- **Interpretation:** The organism will ferment sucrose and lactose.
2. **Result: K/A**
- **Interpretation:** The organism will only ferment glucose.
3. **Result: A/black**
- **Interpretation:** The organism produces hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ferments glucose.
**Explanation of TSI Slant Results:**
- **A/A (Acid/Acid):** Indicates that lactose and/or sucrose are fermented.
- **K/A (Alkaline/Acid):** Indicates that only glucose is fermented.
- **A/black (Acid/black precipitate):** Indicates fermentation of glucose with hydrogen sulfide (H2S) production, where the black color represents iron sulfide formation in the medium.
