De aanwezigheid of afwezigheid van enzymactiviteit is een taxonomische eigenschap van micro-organismen en kan worden gebruikt voor hun differentiatie of identificatie.

Supplier: VWR Chemicals

De katalasetest maakt differentiatie of identificatie van micro-organismen mogelijk, waarbij hun vermogen om katalase te produceren wordt getest. Katalase is een enzym dat micro-organismen beschermt tegen giftige zuurstofmetabolieten. Meestal produceren alleen aërobe micro-organismen katalase.

The Microbact™ Gram-negative system is to be used for the identification of aerobic and facultatively anaerobic Gram-negative bacteria (Enterobacteriaceae and miscellaneous Gram- negative bacteria). Organism identification is based on pH change and substrate utilisations as established by published reference methodologies.

EnteroPluri Test is a 12-sector system containing special culture media that permits identification of the Enterobacteriaceae and other gram negative, oxidase negative bacteria. The system allows the simultaneous inoculation of all media present in the sectors and the execution of 15 biochemical reactions. Microorganism is identified evaluating the colour change of the different culture media after 18 to 24 hours of incubation at 36 ±1 °C and by a code number obtained from biochemical reaction interpretation. Oxidase, Kovacs Reagent Indol (e.g. 1.00181.0002, 1.09293.0100, 1.11350.0001) and Codebook are not included.

Biological Activity Reaction Test (BART) biodetectors are microbiological diagnostic tools used to identify the presence of process disruptors. Tests for many types of bacteria are available, including sulfate-reducing bacteria, heterotropic acid, nitrifying bacteria, pool and spa bacteria, blue-green algae, and more.
