What is the function of the test reagent in the oxidase test?
The ability of bacteria to produce cytochrome oxidase can be determined by the addition of the test reagent p-aminodimethylaniline oxalate to colonies grown on a plate medium.
Give explanation why the Oxidase test identifies the presence of cytochrome c oxidase and not the other electron carriers?
An oxidase test relies on a reagent that will change colors when it is oxidized. The reagent used in the test only reacts to cytochrome c oxidase by acting in place of oxygen to receive electrons from the cytochrome.
Is it a valid test if an organism that possesses cytochrome c oxidase and the reagent begins to turn blue at 45 seconds?
No, it is not valid. Results need to be read within 20 seconds because oxygen in the area quickly distorts the results in an experiment of this kind.
What is the difference between Benedict's Reagent and Biuret Reagent?
Benedicts reagent is used to check reducing sugars , it need hat to work and gives red color when positive ,. While biuret reagent is for proteins .there is no need to use heat and gives purple , violet color when positive ..
Is coryne bacterium is oxidase positive?
no.coryne bacterium is oxidase negative.

List two advantages in using the clinitest reagent in preference to Benedict's reagent?
The Clinitest reagent is a self test so it does not need to be performed in a hospital setting or by a nurse or doctor. The Clinitest reagent has proven to be more accurate than the Benedict's reagent.

What is the specific use of a medium sized reagent bottle?
Your question supplies its own answer, though you may need to ensure the bottle's material will withstand the intended reagent.
Do anaerobic bacteria require oxidase?
No, only aerobic bacteria require oxidase.
