Description
Oxidase Reagent Droppers are used in the Kovacs oxidase test as a qualitative reaction in the identification of nonfermenters
and miscellaneous gram-negative bacteria. The oxidase test is based on the production of an enzyme called indophenol oxidase.
This enzyme oxidises a redox dye (present in the reagent) which results in a colour change of yellow to dark purple. Contains
0.5 ml of a 1% aqueous solution of N,N,N?,N?-tetramethylp-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride which has been formulated with
agents to ensure maximum stability.
