In citrate utilization tests, E. coli typically does not grow or change the color of the medium, as it cannot use citrate as a sole carbon source. Thus, any option stating that E. coli gives a positive result is incorrect.
Tips
A common mistake is assuming that E. coli can utilize all carbon sources. Remember, E. coli is negative for citrate utilization, so it won't show growth or color change in this test.
