The catalase test is used to differentiate staphylococci (catalase-positive) from streptococci (catalase-negative). The enzyme‚ catalase‚ protects the bacteria from the toxic by-products of oxygen metabolism. This enzyme is produced by bacteria that respires using oxygen. The catalase-positive bacteria include strict aerobes. Catalase-negative bacteria may be anaerobes‚ or they may be facultative anaerobes do not respire using oxygen as a terminal electron acceptor. The test reaction is very fast

3.1 Ex-vivo Evaluation of the Mucoadhesiveness of Synbiotics Mucoadhesive properties prolong the retention time of the bead’s dose in the targeted site the colon [23]‚ [50]. Since the dose is intended to colonic release‚ mucoadhesion parameters play a key role in the efficiency of the form. The beads remain longer in contact with colonic mucosa when they have more mucoadhesive property. As a result the probiotics will have enough time to get released from beads and colonize the colon [37]‚ [51]

To test this we used different chemicals that would react with one of the four items above showing either a high concentration or low concentration within the urine. By using a solution called silver nitrate we could test whether or not salt was present in the urine. If the urine turned a cloudy white after adding the silver nitrate the urine had a high concentration of salt. To test for amino acid we used a chemical called biuret solution. If

The presence of carbohydrates in a solution can be determined by a qualitative test of Molisch test. Molisch test is a general‚ sensitive chemical test and positive for all kinds of carbohydrates which in free form or in combined form. The test is based on the dehydration of the carbohydrate by concentrated sulfuric acid to produce an aldehyde which condenses with two molecules of phenol‚ resulting in a coloured compound. Molisch reagent is a solution of α-napthol in 95% ethanol. The aldehydes produced

aldehydes are known as aldoses. Sugars that are ketones are known as ketoses.Glucose and galactose are example of aldoses while fructose is an example of ketoses.There are few test can be done for testing these sugar to show or prove are they reducing sugar or non reducing sugar.Example of the test that can be done is Benedict test. 1 In plant‚glucose is stored as the polysaccharide starch.Example of food that rich in starch is oat‚cereal‚rice and corn.Starch can be divided into

In order to determine the acidity of certain substances‚ we used moist and dry pH paper (litmus tests)‚ and observed the results. First we used dry pH paper to test the acidity of household ammonia‚ and it turned yellow. According to the legend‚ this indicates a weak acid. This is‚ however‚ not accurate as the vapor of the household ammonia wasn’t able to react as strongly with the pH paper since it was dry. Then‚ we used moist DI water pH paper with the same substance‚ household ammonia‚ and it
