It's a positive reaction, thus results in a red/orange color.

The bacteria Staphlococcus epidermis are oxidase-negative. (However, they are catalase postive.)

Is staphylococcus epidermidis citrate positive?

Staphylococcus Epidermidis does return a gram positive result on the citrate lab test. Gram stains will produce these results on slides.

What does the combination of two glucose molecules result in?

The reaction is a condensation reaction so in addition to the disaccharide water is also a product. N.B. glucose + glucose -> maltose + water (not sucrose) glucose + fructose -> sucrose + water


How do you tell the difference between S epidermidis and E faecalis?

Metabolic tests such as an oxidase test can be used to differentiate S epidermidis and E faecalis. Such a test can be conducted by adding H2O2 to the colony. The result for S aureus will be negative and the result for S epidermidis will be positive.

The result of dark photosynthesis reaction is abasic form of glucose or carbohydrates withoutwater or oxygen.


What color would non pathogenic staphylococcus epidermidis agar be after the growth of the bacteria?

Well it depends on which type of agar preparation you use. For example, if you use a mannitol NaCl salt agar it'll contain a red phenol dye which is a pH indicator. If a microbe is pathogenic it'll ferment the mannitol into acids which turn the red indicator yellow. Non-pathogenic bacteria such as S. epidermidis will not ferment the mannitol and so no colour change will result.


When a glucose molecule loses a hydrogen atom as the result of an oxidation-reduction reaction the molecule becomes?

oxidized


When a molecule of glucose is completely oxidized its six carbon atoms are changed into?

Carbon atoms from a complex organic food molecule, such as glucose, are completely oxidized at the end of its reaction chain. Carbon dioxide is the waste that is released as a result of this reaction.


Is dissolving glucose in water endothermic reaction?

No, because it's not a reaction. Dissolving is a physical, not a chemical, process. Some things dissociate as a result of being dissolved, and this dissociation can be treated as a chemical reaction, but glucose is not one of them. It is slightly endothermic, though, if that's the part you were really interested in.


What causes staphylococcus intermedius?

Staphylococcus intermedius isn't a disease or infection it's the actual name of the microbe. Genus Staphylococcus and species intermedius. Therefore it is a causative agent not the result of anything.


What is glucose plus fructose?

2 glucose molecules join to form a molecule of maltose while releasing a molecule of water. The reaction is a condensation reaction.


Is staphylococcus epidermidis indole positive?

S.aureus is a positive gram. Indole test is a part the biochemistry test to determinate a bacteria negative gram. indole test used to determine S.aureus, the result is negative. That is improve which S.aureus haven't trytophanase enzym (please see indole test principle)bcb
