Oxidase Test: To test for the presence of Cytochrome C Oxidase To differentiate Neisseria :Cytochrome C oxidase (+) To differentiate between E. coli (Cytochrome C Oxidase (-) from Pseudomonas (Cytochrome C Oxidase (+) Take two slides Put on top of each slide a piece(2 cm x 2cm) of bibulous paper. With a cotton swab roll a heavy inoculum of E.coli on one slide and Pseudomonas on the other slide Add 2 drops drops of the chromogenic reagent Wait for color change Chrom.
