Home come E.coli can't grow on Simmons Citrate Media?
Because it cannot utilize citrate as the sole carbon source and/or they cannot utilize ammonium ions as the sole nitrogen source.

What is a body tissue?
body tissue is a clump of cells together. and a clump of tissues make an organ.
Do somatic cells undergo meiosis?
yes, Meiosis (i/maɪˈoʊsɨs/) is a special type of cell division necessary for sexual reproduction in eukaryotes. The cells produced by meiosis are gametes or spores. In many organisms, including all animals and land plants (but not some other groups such as fungi), gametes are called sperm and egg cells.Snustad, DP; Simmons, MJ (December 2008).

Is it possible to lick your elbow?
Elbow LickingThis is from Guinness World Records: "Elbow Licking. Contrary to popular urban legend, it is quite possible to lick your own elbow. Guinness World Records receives about five claims a day for this and stresses the following point: Being able to lick your own elbow is not, in any sense, a world record. If you're one of the rare few who can lick your elbow, save it for the water cooler." It is possible to lick your own elbow. There is an urban legend that says that it is impossible to kiss your own elbow and if you do, it says you will turn into the opposite sex. Of course this is not true.
What is the result of citrate test for bacillus licheniformis?
The result is the initial green color of the Simmons Citrate Agar turning blue; generating a positive indication that the organism does indeed utilize citrate as the sole source of carbon and energy.
If an organism is able to convert the sodium citrate in simmons citrate agar to pyruvate what are some possible reasons why an organism might ferment rather than metabolize it oxidatively in the Krebs?
Citrate, a Krebs cycle (i.e., TCA cycle or citric acid cycle) intermediate, is generated by many bacteria; however, utilization of exogenous citrate requires the presence of citrate transport proteins (permeases). Upon uptake by the cell, citrate is cleaved by citrate lyase to oxaloacetate and acetate. The oxaloacetate is then metabolized to pyruvate and CO2.
What gram negative facultative anaerobic bacteria are lipase negative and Simmons citrate negative?
E. Coli
WHY IS NITROGEN SUPPLIED AS AMMONIUM SALTS (SPECIFICALLY) RATHER THAN AS AMINO ACIDS IN SIMMONS CITRATE AGAR?
If amino acids were used they would not produce the same degree of pH change that results in color change of the indicator.
What is simmons citrate agar?
Simmons citrate agar is a differential agar used to determine if a sample bacteria can utilize citrate as its only carbon source. The agar is initially a green color due to the bromo thymol blue pH indicator in it. If a bacteria uses the citrate, the by-products are ammonia and ammonium hydroxide both of which will alkalize the agar and increase the pH to the point of changing the indicator's color to blue, so the whole agar turns from green to blue.
