Does bacillus subtilis have a positive reaction for ONPG Test?
No, Bacillus subtilis does not have a positive reaction for the ONPG test. This test is used to detect the presence of β-galactosidase enzyme, which is not produced by Bacillus subtilis.
Why are some organisms positive in the ONPG Test but negative when tested for the ability to metabolize lactose?
In the ONPG test, organisms may be positive due to the presence of beta-galactosidase enzyme, which cleaves ONPG and produces a yellow color. However, in the lactose fermentation test, some organisms may lack other necessary enzymes or transport systems to fully metabolize lactose, resulting in a negative result despite having beta-galactosidase.
Why cant the ONPG test be substituted for the determination of lactose fermentation?
ONPG test detects only presence of beta galactosidase enzyme whereas lactose fermentation requires the presence of permease as well as beta galactosidase enzyme.
Biochemical tests for Salmonella and Shigella?
urease - negative ONPG - positive Lysine - positive
Motility is best seen with a?
