The Carbohydrate Fermentation test uses Phenol Red Broth to test for the fermentation of different sugars. It is one of the fermentation tests, others include the Methyl Red test and the Voges-Proskauer test.
The main reason why we use hexadecimal numbers is because it is much easier to express binary number representations in hex than it is in any other base number system. Computers do not actually work in hex (donât laugh, beginning students do ask that question). Lets look at an example, using a byte.
In mathematics and computing, hexadecimal (also base 16, or hex) is a positional numeral system with a radix, or base, of 16. It uses sixteen distinct symbols, most often the symbols 0â9 to represent values zero to nine, and A, B, C, D, E, F (or alternatively a, b, c, d, e, f) to represent values ten to fifteen. Hexadecimal numerals are widely used by computer system designers and programmers.
