Students have asked these similar questions
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
The counterstain in the Gram stain is:
A basic dye
A negative stain
A mordant
An acid dye
Necessary to determine the Gram reaction.
