positive
When determining the ability of a bacteria to degrade urea by means of the enzyme urease. To diagnose H. pylori and identification of the genus Proteus, Providentia, Kelbsiella, and Morganella by their fast urease activity.
Because M.tuberculosis produces urease. thus indicating a person has the bacteria can cause tuberculosis.
Christensen's medium?
Bacillus cereus is oxidase negative -
mywadil test is 1/160 of Para - typhi AH
Marker for Widal Test carried out for the detection of Salmonella
Urease, which is produced by some microorganisms, is an enzyme that is especially helpful in the identification of Proteus vulgaris. Although other organisms may produce urease, their action on the substrate tends to be slower than that seen with Proteus species. Therefore, this test serves to rapidly distinguish members of this genus from other non-lactose-fermenting enteric microorganisms.
it should test + for catalase but Salmonella isolates are moderate catalase reactors.
No, it is present/positive. • Cocci* • Gram-Positive* • Non-motile* • No Capsules* • No Spores* • Facultative Aerobe* • No Glucose, Lactose*, Mannitol* Fermentation • No Urease*, Catalase*, Oxidase*, Ligase*, Protease* Production • Production of Indole*, tryptophonase*
imvic test helps in identi fication of salmonello typhi and a specific agar named salmonella shigella agar is used for culturing these species
It is urease positive .It possesses the enzymes urease which hydrolyses urea to form ammonia. As a result the pH of the medium used for detection of urease enzyme (Urea Broth) increases and shows bright pink colour, since phenol red is bright pink in alkaline conditions.
