Question
Exercise 10 & 11:
Carbohydrate catabolism in general - primarily looking at fermentation paths in these exercises
Exoenzymes & Amylase - only specific enzyme for this exercise
Starch agar (what looks like for positive and negative, what enzyme you are testing for, how to do test - must
add iodine reagent before reading!)
Sugar Fermentation tubes:
what testing for (acid or acid/gas production), observe and interpret results completely (A = acid, Ag =
Acid + gas, K= alkaline) [Acid = yellow; K= red}
MRVP broth - do twice, once for MR methyl red pathway and one for VP test Voges Proskauer pathway
How to do both tests, what is each testing for, observe and interpret results completely, what reagents
are added
MR (mixed acid fermentation)
VP (2,3 butanediol fermentation)
Citrate slant (citrate sole carbon source)
TSI (glucose/lactose/sucrose fermentation to acids, H₂S production)
observe and interpret results completely like A/A, K/K, A/H2S, etc.
what processes are occurring in butt vs slant
for slant sugar reactions - recall, in slant, you cannot distinguish if one or the other sugar present
(lactose and or sucrose) has been fermented to acids, only that at least one of them has been
fermented to acids
