The Urease Test is a good identification tool to determine if a microorganism contains urease. The Proteus species can be determined by this test as well because it uses urea at a faster rate as compared to other organisms. With this information how will the positive reaction for the Proteus species as compared to other slow urease producing organisms look like? (Organisms were incubated for 12 hours).
