Growth from an overnight culture of the microbe is smeared on a microscope slide. A drop of 3% hydrogen peroxide is added. If copious bubbles are observed, the microbe is positive for catalase.atalase is then added and the reaction is observed. To view the catalase test in VirtualUnknown â¢ Microbiology, complete the following steps: 2. Press the Play button to watch the video. A short video clip showing microscopic observation of a catalase test for the unknown organism will play.
by Tomâs Guide Staff. Encryption refers to any process used to make sensitive data more secure and less likely to be intercepted by those unauthorized to view it. There are several modern types of encryption used to protect sensitive electronic data, such as emails, files, folders and entire drives.
In symmetric systems the same key (the secret key) is used to encrypt and decrypt a message. Data manipulation in symmetric systems is faster than asymmetric systems as they generally use shorter key lengths. Asymmetric systems use public key to encrypt a message and a private key to decrypt it.Use of asymmetric systems enhances the security of communication. In colloquial use, the term  code  is often used to mean any method of encryption or concealment of meaning.ymmetric-key cryptography, where a single key is used for encryption and decryption. Symmetric-key cryptography refers to encryption methods in which both the sender and receiver share the same key (or, less commonly, in which their keys are different, but related in an easily computable way).
