Voges-Proskauer A Reagent, Part Number SS1056315, Buy Histological Stains & Dyes for Histology, Cytology, Microbiology, Hematology & Biology Lab from TriStains at Dawnscientific.
VP A Reagent is also a very important part of the Voges-Proskauer test, which is used to check for biological production of acetoin utilizing a bacteria’s fermentation pathway, so it is important to ensure the functioning of the reagent. An aqueous solution containing 1-naphthol with an active concentration of 5-6% is commonly used. its color is reddish-pink to purple, and hence helps in the detection of the important process, and distinctively contributes greatly to the detection process of acetoin production in bacteria.
