  2. Antibiotic sensitivity testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antibiotic_sensitivity_testing

    The results were difficult to interpret and not reliable, because of inaccurate results that were not standardised between laboratories. [25] Dilution has been used as a method to grow and identify bacteria since the 1870s, and as a method of testing the susceptibility of bacteria to antibiotics since 1929, also by Alexander Fleming.

  4. Fluorescence microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescence_microscope

    Light of the excitation wavelength illuminates the specimen through the objective lens. The fluorescence emitted by the specimen is focused to the detector by the same objective that is used for the excitation which for greater resolution will need objective lens with higher numerical aperture. Since most of the excitation light is transmitted ...

    The aminopeptidase test analyzes bacteria for the production of the enzyme L-alanine-aminopeptidase, an enzyme found in many gram-negative bacteria. Adding L-Alanine-4-nitroanilide hydrochloride to a bacterial culture works as an indicator, changing to a yellow color in the presence of L-alanine-aminopeptidase. [18]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_diffusion_test

    The disk diffusion test (also known as the agar diffusion test, Kirby–Bauer test, disc-diffusion antibiotic susceptibility test, disc-diffusion antibiotic sensitivity test and KB test) is a culture-based microbiology assay used in diagnostic and drug discovery laboratories. In diagnostic labs, the assay is used to determine the susceptibility ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colony-forming_unit

    Colony-forming units are used to quantify results in many microbiological plating and counting methods, including: The pour plate method wherein the sample is suspended in a Petri dish using molten agar cooled to approximately 40–45 °C (just above the point of solidification to minimize heat-induced cell death).

  9. IMViC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMViC

    The solution remaining yellow (pH = 6.2 or above) indicates a negative test, meaning the butanediol fermentation is used. The VP test uses alpha-naphthol and potassium hydroxide to test for the presence of acetylmethylcarbinol (acetoin), an intermediate of the 2,3-butanediol fermentation pathway. After adding both reagents, the tube is shaken ...
