The following points highlight the two main tests conducted for utilisation of amino acids:- 1. Decarboxylase Test 2. Phenylalanine Deaminase Test. 1. Decarboxylase Test: This test helps in differentiating Gram-negative organisms based on their ability to degrade amino acid substrates enzymatically. All biologically active proteins are composed of 20 essential amino acids. Amino acids have […]
