Question
Answer
Catalase test   test for enzyme production that bacteria have. the H202 will for H20 alone. Differentiation between staph and strep  
🗑
Coagulase test   Rabbit Plasma with bug cause clot formation. Slide test: S aureus,ludgunenis,schleiferi S. intermedeus and S schleiferi can also cause postitive reactions. But mostly used to screen for S. aureus Note: some staph can develop staphylokinase: cause False  
🗑
Pyr Test   Detects the EZ L-pyrrolidonyl arylamidase. Colony placed on felt paper enhanced with PYR and Positive is indicated by Red. DMACA p-dimethylaminocinnamaldehyde S. pyogenes and Enterococcus sp. Also Differentiate btween. S. aureus and S. Ludgenensis  
🗑
Bile Solubility Test   Colonies of S. pneumoniae are soluble in sodium deoxychelate. In bile @37C colonies autolyse within 30 min and disappear.  
🗑

🗑
Oxidase Test   Tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride detects cytochrome oxidase in electron transport system causeing a Purple Reaction in 15-30 MIN.  
🗑

Black H2S Gas   Detects enzymes that produce Hydrogen Sulfide H2S reacts with Iron Saltsin medium to form black precipitate of Ferrous Sulfide  
🗑
IMViC(Indole,Methyl Red, Vogues Proskauer, and citrate)   Indole: Tryptophanase detection Methyl Red: PH indicator , Yellow (ACID and GLucose) Red is Negative VP: DX. of GLU->acetoin (RED) = POS citrate: Test to see if carbon is the sole carbon source. (BLUE)is +  
🗑
ONPG(o-nitrophenol-B-D-galactopyranoside)   To detect the precence of B-galactosidase, an enzyme that Cleaves ONPG and LACTOSE. Also used to test late lactose fermenters. (YELLOW) + reaction  
🗑
Nitrate Reduction Test   Positive test dx. ability of an organism to reduce nitrate to nitrite or N03 to N02.After addition of NN-D-a-namine..pink is Positive. If no color, Add ZINC...turns pink its true NEG. Stays Yellow or NO Change is a TRUE Positive indicating N03 reduced  
🗑
Staph Aureus   Catalase Positive, Coag Positive, Bet-hemo, GPC Clusters, TSST-1 enterotoxin. Latex agglutination+ for protein A. PYR NEG. MSA 7.6% POS.  
🗑
Coag Neg Staphylococcus   S. saprophyticus- UTIs and NOVOBIACIN RESISTANT S. Lugdenensis-PYR POS, Ferments Mannitol, Cause Endocarditis  
🗑
Micrococcus   Normal flora of skin and mucouse, Cause infection in immunosuppressed. YELLOW on SBA  
🗑
S. Pyogenes   Catalase NEG, GPC chains and pairs, Strep Throat, post strep glomerulonephritis, necrotizing fascitis, and rheumatic fever Susceptable to A disc(bacitracin) small big beta-hemo, M- protein inhibits phago properties and antibodies.  
🗑
