1. It is less likely to get a false positive result. Usually the test can detect the pure organism right away. It is therefore acceptable to record positive test before suggested incubation time is completed. A negative result should not be recorded early because sometimes it takes longer for bacteria/organism to hydrolyze the material.

Why should a positive result not be read before the incubation time is completed in a Starch agar test?

Okay I think I know how to answer this one; you want to give wait until the incubation time is completed for a starch agar test because the cells need to mature in order to produce the enzyme that breaks starch down into a usable form (since starch cannot enter the membrane without being simplified) I hope this helps


What conclusion can you draw when an experimental sample gives both a positive starch and a positive maltose test after incubation?

The maltose positive test will have a degree of how positive, it is. That will tell you how much of the starch has been digested.
