The catalase reaction was negative, and the esculin hydrolysis reaction was quickly positive. |
The OmniLog also does not have crucial biochemical tests such as urea and esculin, which could be necessary to differentiate between species. |
All of the strains produced acid from galactose, D-glucose, D-fructose, d-mannose, esculin, cellobiose, and saccharose. |
It was also found that after oral administration of esculin, the esculin could be metabolized to esculetin in vivo via deglycosylation, and esculetin was found in all biological samples. |
Esculin will not luminesce with peroxidase and H2O2, but pyrogallol or gallic acid will. |
Results showed that metabolic pathways of esculin included hydrolysis, dehydrogenation, hydroxylation, methylation, dehydrogenation, glucuronidation, sulfation, and glycine conjugation. |
