Microorganisms that can yield a positive presumptive test typically include coliform bacteria, such as Escherichia coli (E. coli) and other members of the Enterobacteriaceae family. These bacteria are commonly used as indicators of fecal contamination in water and food samples. In a presumptive test, they ferment lactose, producing gas and acid, which suggests their presence. Other microorganisms that may also test positive include certain Enterococcus species, though they are not coliforms.

What are presumptive arguments based on?

Presumptive arguments are based on plausibility, which is whether a statement seems true in normal situations. The conclusion from the argument is tentatively acceptable if the premises are true.
