INDOLE TEST
Indole test (Tryptophan hydrolysis) is used to identify Enterobacteria that breakdown tryptophan (an amino acid) to produce indole. The indole test is a biochemical test performed on bacterial species to determine the ability of the organism to convert tryptophan into the indole. Tryptophan hydrolysis is catalyzed by the enzyme tryptophanase to produce indole and pyruvic […]
