Thank you so much Dr.Holden for the lecture ! 6:50 You mentioned that the black dots present in the salmonella colonies grown on the (XLD) agar are due to the production of hydrogen sulfide " H2S " . Actually hydrogen sulfide " H2S " is a colorless gas with an odor of " rotten eggs " ; which does NOT give that characteristic black dot appearance to the salmonella colonies . That black dot appearance of the colonies is rather due to the precipitation of ferrous sulfide salt " FeS " & that is produced by the reaction between (ferric ammonium citrate) & (sodium thiosulfate ) in what is called " H2S indicator system " . The switch in pH levels ; from acidic pH due to lactic acid production from xylose fermentation to basic pH due to cadaverine production from lysine decarboxylation catalyzes the reactions of the " H2S indicator system " ===> FeS production . 8:00 Finally coliform bacteria favor lactose & sucrose on xylose NOT lysine as an energy source to produce lactic acid as a byproduct .
@@Sandysan11111 According to what Dr. Holden mentioned ; Sucrose & lactose COMPETE with lysine to be taken up by coliform bacteria so that coliforms do NOT decarboxylate lysine ==> preventing them from producing false positive results ! Lysine per se is an amino acid ! The question here is : does lysine use carbohydrate carriers to enter coliform bacteria ?
If salmonella can use lysine then why even have xylose as an ingredient in the first place? Wouldn't lactose, sucrose, lysine and H2S system be enough?
@@vikrambhaskar7976 Salmonella seems to be unique among enterobacteriaceae in utilizing XYLOSE as an energy source , as well as possessing the capacity to decarboxylate LYSINE ! XLD agar is a kind of selective media that selects the growth of a large population of different Gram -ve bacterial species including : Coliform & Non - Coliform bacteria ! Coliforms are of course lactose fermenting bacteria that preferably utilize LACTOSE as an energy source , in contrast Non - coliforms do NOT utilize lactose as an energy source ! Finally Coliforms do NOT necessarily decarboxylate LYSINE as effectively as Salmonella .
Dr Joshua Remedy right now that l have my PHD in biophysics, l can agree with him that seamoss has all the essential elements needed by the humau body, a perfect balance 💕💕
Hot professor strikes again with a super video! I used XLD as a basic trainee biomed without fully knowing the ins and outs of it. Be great to have a whole set of videos based on the agar plates and their uses if at all possible?

why is the reason for the false positive if we do not use lactose and sucrose?

Thank You Very Much Mam 🙇🙇🙇🙇
Thanks Dr. Holden.
Very well explained 👍
Clear and understanding video thanks keep it up

Something like this? ;) th-cam.com/play/PLjMo-ys5HQIZQ5EYCtqN9abio8LiSwoWl.html
