Q: Production of Acetyl methyl carbinol can be detected by which of the following test?
  • A. Citrate utilization test
  • B. Voges- proskauer test
  • C. Methyl red test
  • D. Indole test
Correct Answer: Option B - A modified voges-proskauer test is described which distinguishes within 4 to 8 hours between organisms that can produce acetyl methyl-carbinol (action) from glucose fermentation. This test detect the production of acetyl methyl carbinol (acetoin) in bacterial cultures.
