A positive urea hydrolysis test for Mycobacterium tuberculosis indicates that this bacterium is capable of hydrolyzing urea into ammonia and carbon dioxide

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a slow-growing, acid-fast bacterium that causes tuberculosis in humans. It possesses the enzyme urease, which allows it to break down urea. When urea is hydrolyzed, ammonia is produced, which raises the pH of the surrounding medium. This increase in pH is what produces a positive result in the urea hydrolysis test.
