When lipids are added to an agar-solidified culture medium and are cultured with lipolytic bacteria, the surrounding medium becomes acidic due to the release of fatty acids. By adding a pH indicator (such as Spirit Blue which has a lavender color), it is possible to detect lipolysis by a clear area surrounding the bacterial growth. A clear area around bacterial growth indicates a positive test. In the absense of lipolysis, the medium retains its lavender color and is a negative reaction.
you can use a durham tube and observe the formation of a bubble for the microbes that are expected to produce gas
bacteria is, unless you were to use the word "The" in front (the bacteria are) Answer The bacterium is ...., the bacteria are..... Bacteria is the plural form, bacterium is the singluar.
a bacterium that lives underwater
bacteria is plural and bacterium is singular
If iodine is not available, determine whether starch hydrolysis has occurred using a refractometer or plot the yeast that forms.
You could determine whether a bacterium fermented the carbohydrates, mannitol, sorbitol, adonitol, or arbinose by a color change. Also gases are formed.
How can you determine whether the zone of inhibition is due to death or the effect of the antibiotics?
cell wall and DNA

The composition of the rock will determine whether it is a rhyolite or an andesite.
Any food that has a high fat content....
cell wall and DNA because bacteria don't have a cytoskeleton
Yes, the host is living, whether it be a host for a virus, a worm, or a bacterium.
It is also called the Kirby-Bauer test. It is used to determine the effectiveness of an antibiotic against a bacterium.
