| Jan 23, 2017 at 22:52 | comment | added | David | @barlop — There is no call to define it. Papers typically will have titles like "Delayed Lactose Fermentation by Enterobacteriaceae" (to quote a 1966 paper I found by Googling) and, for example,measure the amount of lactose converted to lactic acid or whatever in different strains (or more likely assay the activity of various enzymes). But this is not a question that concerns anyone in a field that has been moribund for the past 50 years. | |

| Jan 23, 2017 at 18:35 | comment | added | bpedit | This would not be a natural distinction, it is symantical. The only way to state for sure would be if some universally accepted governing board declared it so. Or, if you're a student, it's what the teacher says, at least until after the exam! | |
