What is this organism? And what other test could be done to confirm it's identification? 1.Gram stain - positive cocci, chains Catalase - weak positive Hemolysis - beta BE - positive NaCl- positive Bacitracin - no zone of inhibition PYR - positive Answer: Enterococcus spp. CAMP test to verify the identity 2.Gram positive cocci, chains Catalase - negative Hemolysis - alpha BE - negative NaCl - negative P disk - resistant Bile Solubility - negative Answer - viridans group, Use PYR test to verify

Identification of Gram-positive cocci: You have isolated a catalase-negative bacterium that doesn't grow well in 6.5% NaCl medium. Which test would you expect to give you a presumptive identification? (i.e. The first tests tell you the genus, which test would identify a species of that genus) CAMP Test Coagulase Tube Test PYR Test Novobiocin Sensitivity Test
This is a catalase-positive, coagulase-negative, gram-positive coccus isolated from a urine specimen from a 20-year-old female college student. The image shown is a Mueller Hinton plate streaked with a 0.5 MacFarland standardized inoculum and a 5 microgram disk of novobiocin after overnight incubation. What is the identification of the isolate? Please select the single best answer Staphylococcus epidermidis Staphylococcus aureus Staphylococcus saprophyticus Staphylococcus lugdenensis

An outbreak of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in the surgical ward at the hospital forces the hospital administrator to cancel and postpone all non-essential surgeries until the source of infection has been located and for measure put into place. Bacterial samples obtained from swab of wad staff equipment and surfaces arr brought to the lab for analysis. 1. What testing method will you employ to determine the level of exposure? 2 How would a positive test present? 3. How would a negative test present? 4. What recommendations would you make in your report?
EXPLAIN THE PURPOSE OF THE METHYL RED AND VOGES-PROSKAUER TESTS IN DETERMINING THE IDENTITY OF GRAM NEGATIVE ORGANISMS IN THE FAMILY ENTEROBACTERIACEAE. INCLUDE IN YOUR ANSWER WHY METHYL RED IS USED RATHER THAN PHENOL RED. WHAT ORGANISM IN THE FAMILY IS USED AS A CONTROL WHEN RUNNING THE METHYL TEST. IF THE METHYL RED TEST IS NEGATIVE, EXPLAIN WHY THE VOGES-PROSKAUER TEST IS RUN AND INCLUDE WHAT COLOR CHANGE INDICATES A POSITIVE TEST. ACCOUNT FOR THE COLOR DIFFERENCES IN THE NEGATIVE VOGES-PROSKAURER TESTS. WHAT REAGENTS (COMMON NAME) WERE USED IN THE VOGES -PROSKAUER TEST.
I tested organism growth on the MSA plate for strep. pyongenes, strep. pneumonia, s. aureus, and straph. epidermidis and my results were that streptococci organism did not grow or change color and the s.aureus changed color (yellow) and s.epi there was no change in color but they both showed growth. 1. If an unknown gram-positive bacterium was given, what would it mean if it grew on MSA? Name the organisms used above My answer: that it would be either s.aureus or s. epidermis because they are selective for salt-tolerant bacteria and can grow on mannitol 2. what would it mean if it both grew on MSA and turned yellow? Can you add to my answer or correct it. Thank you!

At autopsy, the most prominent findings were bronchopneumonia with focal organization and hemorrhage in the right lung. Stains of the lung tissue were negative by Gram, methenamine silver, and acid-fast methods, but Dieterle silver stains revealed short bacilli. Lung cultures yielded Gram-negative bacilli, which grew aerobically on buffered charcoal-yeast extract, but not on blood or chocolate agar. The organisms resembled Legionella, but failed to stain with immunofluorescence conjugates for Legionella pneumophila and multiple other species (L minded, L longbeachae, L gormanii, L dumoffi, L bozemanii). The organism was sent to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, where it was eventually identified as a new species of Legionella. What is the most probable source of this man's infection?
