Sugar Fermentation • Melibiose • Amygdalin • Arabinose • Sorbitol • Rhamnose • Sucrose • Glucose • Mannitol • Inositol Must use additional reagents to GLU to see result
Catabolic Enzymes • Beta galactosidase • Arginine dehydrogenase • Lysine decarboxylase • Ornithine decarboxylase
Citrate Utilization blue indicates citrate utilization and alkaline by-products
Sulfur Reduction CH2 SH CH3 cysteine desulfurase H2S COOH + CH H2N CH COOH H2N (hydrogen sulfide) (alanine) (cysteine + sodium thiosulfate) Fe++ (in medium) FeS (iron sulfide) (black ppt)
H2N NH2 urease 2 NH3 + CO2 C (ammonia) O (urea) Nitrogen Fixing
H2O + H2N Tryptophan deaminase (indole) COOH CH2 CH N (tryptophan) N + NH3 (ammonia) + CH3 C = O (pyruvic acid) COOH Tryptophan - Indole Reaction Must add Kovac’s reagent to see result
Acetoin Reaction Must add KOH and α-naphthol to see result
Gelatinase(s) • Large group of proteolytic enzymes • Degrade collagen • Metalloproteases • Virulence factors
API Test : Sample Prep • Pick ONE SINGLE colony (no agar) • Emulsify colony by pipetting up and down in small amount of liquid
Inoculating API Test Strips Overlay with mineral oil: • ADH, LDC, ODC, H2S, & URE • Fill tubules & cupules: • CIT, VP & GEL • (see pg. 223 in lab manual)
Reading API Test Strips • Use chart on pp. 225-8 in manual to determine results • Record + or – results for each test • Add + results in oval below tests • Record 7-digit code and look up ID
