Description

Differentiate enteric gram-negative bacilli (e.g., Morganella and Providencia) on the basis of deamination of phenylalanine using Phenylalanine Agar.

Differentiate enteric gram-negative bacilli (e.g., Morganella and Providencia1,2) on the basis of deamination of phenylalanine using Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Phenylalanine Agar. In 1950, Henriksen reported Proteus species were able to convert phenylalanine to phenylpyruvic acid3. Later, Buttiaux et al. described a method for detection of phenylpyruvic acid, formed as a result of phenylalanine deamination4. Bynae incorporated phenylalanine into an agar used to grow the organism5,6. Ewing et al. modified the formulation of Bynae by omitting proteose peptone7.

The ability of an organism to oxidatively deaminate phenylalanine to phenylpyruvic acid is an important reaction in the differentiation of Enterobacteriaceae. This criterion is used to identify and differentiate enteric gram-negative bacilli f
