—For fastidious organisms such as Haemophilus influenzae.

—Lysis of the red blood cells causes the release of intracellular coenzyme nicotinamide  adenine dinucleotide (NAD or V-factor) into the agar. Hemin (factor X) is available in non lysed cells. (Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Neisseria meningitidis, and haemophilus spp.)

Narcolepsy?

involves the sudden, overpowering urge to sleep. The urge is so uncontrollable that the person may fall asleep while talking or standing up.

Narcoleptics immediately enter REM sleep rather than progressing through the first four sleep stages. It can be triggered by extreme emotional reactions, such as surprise, laughter, excitement or anger.

•contains a rich supply of special nutrients that promote the growth of fastidious organisms, for example, chocolate agar, blood agar

•has added inhibitors that discourage growth of certain organisms while allowing the growth of a desired organism, for example, Thayer Martin agar

• permits the differentiation of organisms that grow on the medium, for example, MacConkey agar

What is the principle behind the catalase test ?

The catalase test is a particularly important test used to determine whether the Gram + cocci is a staphylococcus or streptococci. Catalase is an enzyme that converts hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen gas. The test is easy to perform; bacteria are simply mixed with H 2O 2. If bubbles appear (due to the production of oxygen gas) the bacteria are catalase positive. If no bubbles appear, the bacteria are catalase negative
