Suppose you want to evaluate the lactose metabolism capability of E. coli. To assess this, you experiment by inoculating E. coli into a flask containing lactose and allowing it to incubate for several hours. If the bacteria were able to metabolize the lactose successfully, what enzyme(s) might you expect to detect in the flask after the incubation period?
