Possible contaminate will be Proteus or Salmonella. To differentiate the two genera urease test can be accomplished. However, urease test, Proteus will produce a positive test result.

This test can be done to determine the ability of an organism to split urea. The principle of urease test is that urea is the product of decarboxylation of amino acid. Splitting of urea via hydrolysis will produce ammnonia and CO2. The CO2 produce allows the formation of bubbles.

What specialized structures does crayfish have that make it well suited to its environment​
Zinaida [17]
Crayfish are invertebrates which means they don't have a backbone. They are also arthropods, which means that they have a protective exoskeleton on the outside of their body. Other arthropods include insects, spiders, and centipedes. Crayfish continually shed their exoskeleton and regrow a new one. During this transition is when they are most vulnerable to predators because they aren't protected by their outer shell.

Crayfish are found all over the world in many different freshwater environments, such as rivers, creeks, springs, and swamps. But this doesn't necessarily mean that you will be able to find them. They are somewhat cryptic because they dig out homes for themselves under rocks and blend in well with their environment. Crayfish will ardently defend this dwelling against intruders using their strong front claws
