Indole Test Protocol
MicrobeLibrary Curriculum: Protocol
12/8/2009 by Maria P. MacWilliams
The indole test screens for the ability of an organism to degrade the amino acid tryptophan to produce indole. This biochemical test is often performed to distinguish among the Enterbacteriaceae. |
Citrate Test Protocol
MicrobeLibrary Curriculum: Protocol
12/8/2009 by Maria P. MacWilliams
Simmons citrate agar tests for the ability of an organism to use citrate as the sole carbon and energy source. This biochemical test is often performed as part of the IMViC tests. |
