This document describes biochemical tests used to identify bacteria, including the Indole test, Methyl Red test, Voges-Proskauer test, and Citrate test. The Indole test detects the production of indole from tryptophan. A positive result is indicated by a yellow or cherry red color change with Kovac's reagent. The Methyl Red test identifies stable acid production from glucose in MR-VP broth, indicated by a red color with methyl red indicator. The Voges-Proskauer test detects acetyl methyl carbinol production from glucose, shown as a pinkish red color change when alpha-naphthol and potassium hydroxide are added.
