PYR- test Biokimia Bakteri

PYR Test- Principle, Uses, Procedure and Result Interpretation

PYR (Pyrrolidonyl Aminopeptidase) Test is used for the detection of pyrolidonyl arylamidase (also called pyrrolidonyl aminopeptidase) activity in Streptococcus pyogenes (group A strep), Enterococcus spp., some coagulase-negative staphylococci, and some Enterobacteriaceae. It is also known as PYR (L-pyrrolidonyl-β-naphthylamide) which serve as a substrate for the detection of pyrrolidonyl peptidase.
Facklam, Thacker, Fox and Eriquez reported that 98% of group A streptococci and 96% of group D enterococci hydrolyze PYR. Although Aerococcus species are rarely isolated in the clinical laboratory, these organisms are also expected to hydrolyze PYR.
Facklam et al. further reported that 98% of group B streptococci, 100% of non-group A, B and D streptococci, 100% of group D non-enterococci and 82% of viridans streptococci yield negative PYR test results.

Principle of PYR Test

PYR is a rapid method for presumptive identification of bacteria based on the pyrrolidonyl arylamidase enzyme. The enzyme L-pyrrolidonyl arylamidase hydrolyzes the L-pyrrolidonyl- β-naphthylamide substrate to produce a β-naphthylamine. The β-naphthylamine can be detected in the presence of N,N-methylaminocinnamaldehyde reagent by the production of a bright red precipitate.
Following hydrolysis of the substrate by the peptidase, the resulting b-naphthylamide produces a red color upon the addition of 0.01% cinnamaldehyde reagent. When a visible inoculum of microorganism is rubbed onto a small area of a disk impregnated with the substrate, the hydrolysis occurs within 2 min, at which time the cinnamaldehyde reagent is added to detect the reaction by a color change to purple.

Uses of PYR Test

  1. It is used for the presumptive identification of group A streptococci (Streptococcus pyogenes).
  2. It is used for the rapid differentiation of enterococci from group D ß-hemolytic streptococci.
  3. It also differentiate some Staphylococci (positive haemolyticus from negative S. auricularis).
  4. It is used in the identification of E. coli, separating it from other indole positive, lactose positive, gram-negative rods.

Procedure of PYR Test

Broth Method
  1. Inoculate PYR broth with 3-5 colonies from 18-24 hours pure culture.
  2. Incubate the tube aerobically at 35-37°C for 4 hours.
  3. Add 2-3 drop of PYR reagent and observe for color change.
  4. Observe for the red color development within 1-2 minutes.
Disk Method (Rapid)
  1. Wet the PYR test disc on the strip with 10 µl sterile distilled water or deionized water.
Note: Do not flood the disk.
  1. Put 5-10 colonies of the tested strain from 18-24 hours culture on the surface of the disc with a loop and smear them lightly on it.
  2. Incubate the disc for 1-2 minutes at room temperature.
  3. After incubation, add 1 drop of N, N-dimethylaminocinnamaldehyde.
  4. Observe for red color development within 1-2 minutes.

Result Interpretation of PYR Test

Result Interpretation of PYR Test
Positive: Bright pink or cherry-red color within 1-2 minutes.
Examples: Group A Streptococci (Streptococcus pyogenes), Group D Enterococci (Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium), Coagulase negative Staphylococcus species such as S. hemolyticus, S. lugdunensis, S. schleiferi., Enterobacter, Citrobacter, Klebsiella, Yersinia and Serratia, Aerococcus, Gamella, Lactococcus, most Corynebacterium (Arcanobacterium) hemolyticum.
Negative: No color change or a blue color due to a positive indole reaction.
Examples: Group B Streptococci (Streptococcus agalactiae), Streptococcus mitis, S. bovis, S. equinus, S. milleri.
Note: A pale pink reaction (weak) is considered negative.

Quality Control for PYR Test

Positive Control: Enterococcus faecalis (ATCC29212), Streptococcus pyogenes(ATCC19615)
Negative Control: Streptococcus agalactiae (ATCC10386)

Limitations of PYR Test

  1. PYR may be used in the presumptive separation of group A streptococci and group D enterococci from other streptococci. Additional testing, using a pure culture, is recommended for complete identification.
  2. A false-negative test can result if the disk or filter paper are too moist.
  3. False-negative tests can result if selective media or tube biochemical agars are used to provide inocula.
  4. Escherichia coli and indole-positive Proteus  obtained from media containing a high tryptophan content may yield a blue-green color development. This is a negative result.
  5. Some less commonly encountered isolates of lactococci and aerococci may be PYRase positive.
  6. Non-specific colour reactions may occur if results are read after 20 seconds.
