III. Methods
Phenol Red Dextrose, Lactose, and Sucrose with Durham tube:
The procedure for inoculation and interpreted results were used from Chess + Handout. A table was made and observations of growth, gas, and color for each bacterium were placed in the table. The broths were incubated at 35ºC for 24 hours.
Note: three broths of each type of sugar were used.
Casein Plate:
The procedure for inoculation and interpreted results were used from Chess + Handout. A table was made and observations of growth and Zone of hydrolysis for each bacterium were placed in the table. The plates were incubated at 35ºC for 24 hours
Note: Only 1 plate of Casein was used which was divide like a pie into three sections. Starch Plate:
The procedure for inoculation and interpreted results were used from Chess + Handout. . A table was made and observations of growth and iodine test results from each bacterium were placed in the table. The plates were incubated at 35ºC for 24 hours
Note:
Litmus Milk:
The procedure for inoculation and interpreted results were used from Chess + Handout. . Two tables were made which recorded bacteria’s growth, color, gas, and consistency. The broths were incubated at 35ºC for 24 hours.
Note:
Gelatin Deep:
The procedure for inoculation and interpreted results were used from Chess + Handout. A table was made and observations of growth and liquid for each bacterium were placed in the table. The deeps were incubated at 35ºC for 24 hours.
Note:
Nitrate Broth with Durham Tube:
The procedure for inoculation and interpreted results were used from Chess + Handout. A table was made and observations of growth, gas, and degree of reduction for each bacterium were placed in the table. The broths were incubated at 35ºC for 24 hours Note:
TSA Catalase Slants:
The procedure for inoculation and interpreted results were used from Chess + Handout. . A table was made and observations of growth and H2O2 presence for each bacterium were placed on the table. The slants were incubated at 35ºC for 24 hours.
Note:
Enterotube:
The procedure for inoculation and interpreted results were used from Chess + Handout. . The results were recorded on a pre-made Enterotube identification handout. The Enterotube was incubated at 35ºC for 24 hours.
Note:
API
The procedure for inoculation and interpreted results were used from Chess + Handout. The results were recorded on a pre-made API identification handout. The API strip was incubated at 35ºC for 24 hours.
Note:
Once the index value was found, the number was used to search for the unknown in the API Quick Index Booklet. . An oxidation test was performed to make sure the unknown would perform positive tests. IV. Results
