Question
Answer
TSI   tripple sugar iron  
🗑
TSI   pH indicator is phenol red, as well as ferric ammonium sulfate  
🗑
TSI   screens for sugar metabolism (glucose and/or disacharide); acid production; hydrogen sulfide production  
🗑
TSI   results of this test allow you to determine the presence of the enzymes sucrase and or lactase  
🗑
A/A   yellow/yellow TSI results on top and in stab: initial use of glucoseand secondary use of one or both disacharides  
🗑
K/A   red/yellow TSI results: initial use of glucose, but no disacharide use  
🗑
K/K   red/red TSI results: no growth or aerobic non-fermenter  
🗑
K   red color on TSI means productionof alkaline wastes from protien digestion  
🗑
A   yellow color change on TSI results indicates acid production from sugar metabolism  
🗑
TSI: bubbles and or cracking   gas production (CO2 or H2)  
🗑
TSI results: black color   H2S production  
🗑
Citrate   pH indicator is bromothymol blue  
🗑
Citrate   screens for the presence of enzyme citrate permease and citrase, needed for metabolism of citrate  
🗑
Citrate   determines if organism can use citrate as its sole metabolic (carbon) energy source  
🗑
Citrate- bright blue   indicates organism has used citrate as a nutrient source and produced alkaline end products  
🗑
Citrate-green color   organism couldnt use citrate, negative test  
🗑
Durham tubes   phenol red is pH indicator  
🗑
Durham tubes   screens for ability of an organism to use a particular sugar as a metabolic energy source; the production of gas  
🗑
Durham tubes   production of acid OR alcohol end products  
🗑
Durham tubes-lemon yellow   organism produces acids as fermentation end products  
🗑
Durham tubes- red/orange   alcohol production from fermentation or aerobic respiration with no fermentation  
🗑
Durham tubes-bubbles   gas production, primarily CO2  
🗑
MR-VP   methyl red pH indicator; Berritts reagent added after incubation  
🗑
MR-VP   screens for the end product of glucose metabolism:acetoin production or mixed acids  
🗑
MR-VP- yellow tube   positive test, produced mixed acids  
🗑
MR-VP- red ring after reagent added   production of acetoin from glucose metabolism  
🗑
SIM deep   sulfer indole motility  
🗑
SIM deep   detect for ability of organismto break down the amino acid cysteine; to break down the amino acid tryptophan; ability of organism to move in media  
🗑
SIM deep   Kovac's reagent used  
🗑
SIM deep- black precipitate   H2S production  
🗑
SIM deep- red ring after Kovacs reagent   production of indole and a positive test, digestion of tryptophan  
🗑
SIM deep- feathering away or cloudiness from stab line   positive test for motility, flagella present  
🗑
Urea slant   phenol red pH indicator  
🗑
Urea slant   determine if organism can break down urea or not, if urease is present  
🗑
Urea slant- bright pink   positive for urea metabolism, breakdown of urea to ammonia, causing rise in pH  
🗑
phenylaline slant   determine if organism can deaminate the amino group from the phenylaline amino acid  
🗑
phenylaline slant   ferric chloride is the reagent  
🗑
phenylaline slant- yellow color after ferrous chloride added   negative for phenylaline deamination  
🗑
phenylaline slant- green color after ferrous chloride added   positive for the enzyme phenylaline deaminase  
🗑
lysine/ornithine broth   bromocresol purple is pH indicator  
🗑
lysine/ornithine broth   determines if organism has ability to decarboxylate of lysine OR ornithine  
🗑
lysine/ornithine broth- purple   positive for lysine or ornithine metabolism: presence of lysine or ornithine decarboxylase enzyme  
🗑
lysine/ornithine broth- yellow color   negitive for metabolism or ornithine or lysine  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
